[Intro]
Dancing in the sheets
Dancing in the sheets

[Verse 1]
I caught you smiling
I know I seen you here before
How come you're hiding
Hey, don't you wanna hit the floor?

The place is crowded
Or maybe you don't like the beat
I got a two-track playing in my head
So let me take you somewhere else instead

Dancing in the sheets
Dancing in the sheets

[Pre-Chorus]
Grab your coat and wave goodbye to your friends
I wanna take you where the night never ends
I feel the need to sweep you off of your feet
You and me we should be dancing in the sheets

[Chorus]
Dancing in the sheets

[Verse 2]
We feel the rhythm
We got the music on our side
If we go with 'em
I'll bet we'll have a wonderful ride, oh-oh

Your hands are cold
So maybe we could make some heat
Love is always born on a chance
So wrap around me and, baby, let's dance

Dancing in the sheets
Dancing in the sheets

[Pre-Chorus]
Grab your coat and wave goodbye to your friends
I wanna take you where the night never ends
I feel the need to sweep you off of your feet
You and me we should be dancing in the sheets

[Chorus]
Dancing in the sheets

[Instrumental Break + Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Grab your coat and wave goodbye to your friends
I wanna take you where the night never ends
I feel the need to sweep you off of your feet
You and me we should be dancing in the sheets

[Chorus]
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)

Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets (Dancing in the sheets)
Dancing in the sheets...

Shalamar

Shalamar is an American R&B and soul music vocal group, active in the mid-1970s and throughout the 1980s. Their original lineup consisted of Jeffrey Daniel, Jody Watley, and Gary Mumford. The group went through various lineup changes throughout the years, with Mumford replaced by Gerald Brown, and again by Howard Hewett. The lineup of Daniel, Hewett, and Watley was the most successful, selling two Platinum albums (Three For Love, Friends) and one Gold album (Big Fun).

Despite more lineup changes in the ‘80s, the group still churned out hits such as “Dancing in the Sheets” and “Don’t Get Stopped in Beverly Hills”, which won them a Grammy.

Daniel, Hewett, and Watley eventually reunited several times in the ‘90s and as recently as 2015, playing in the UK where they’ve had the most success.
