They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More Lyrics - Jimmy Buffett

By: Jimmy Buffett 

1973 

Walkin' down new streets, music is loud 

Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds 

But I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore 

'Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more 

 

She and ol' Cougie, my what a pair 

Jus' doin' the Rhumba as no one else dared 

Slidin' and glidin' 'cross Hollywood floors 

But they don't dance like Carmen no more

-- Spoken: 

"Take it Marvin" 

 

"Shk chk, shk chk, shk chk" 

 

Well now she had a big hat, my it was high 

Had bananas and mangos all piled to the sky 

How she could balance it, I wouldn't dare 

But they don't dance like Carmen nowhere 

 

"Shk chk, shk chk, shk chk" 

 

Ah but the lady's not with us, she died long ago 

And they don't show her movies on late midnight shows 

'Cause the kids would get restless, and the grown-ups would snore 

'Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more 

 

Well now she and old Cougie, my what a pair 

Just doin' the Boogie as no one else dared 

Slidin' and glidin' 'cross hardwood waxed floors 

But they don't dance like Carmen no more

No more 

No no no more 

And I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore 

But they don't dance like Carmen no more 

Nah they don't dance like Carmen no more 

 

Coda: 

Ten cents dance, I might take a chance 

But they don't dance like Carmen no more
