I kid myself that I am doing research Into all the old blues songs But I'm just drinking whisky All night long Well you might call me a fake Or just a victim of my mistakes But I've got some music It's all in the can I'm a song and dance man I'm singing in the rain I'm dancing through the pain You can try and put me down But as long as I'm around I'll be a song and dance man The grass is green and the sky is blue And I don't have a clue What is true for you I'm just a song and dance man Lord knows I've been a fool It's a fact I can't deny You see I kind of lose my mind Every time I step outside I'm singing in the rain I'm dancing through the pain You can try and put me down But as long as I'm around I'll be a song and dance man Yeah you can try and put me down But as long as I'm around I'll be a song and dance man
