Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All the hip young things tryna make a scene
Living out forbidden dreams
Star spangled banner flutters in the sky
Time hustles those who wait to die
[PreChorus]
Come on, little honey
Come on now, please
Come on, little honey, and dance with me
[Chorus]
Sweet soul sister
Keep on pushin' till the dawn, well
Sweet soul sister
Forever dancin' on and on
[Verse 2]
Oh, she's a Dior girl twistin' 'round the world
Midnight crush boogie scene
A firm fixed expression, sensual, tender, smooth
Sexual panther, beautifully cool
[PreChorus]
Come on, little honey
Come on now, please
Come on, little honey, and dance with me
[Chorus]
Sweet soul sister
Keep on pushin' till the dawn, well, well, well
Sweet soul sister
Forever dancin' on and on, yeah
[PreChorus]
Hustle and strut through Paris at night
Hustle and strut
Hustle and strut through Paris at night
Hustle and strut
Say, na, na, na
Say, na, na, na, yeah
[Bridge]
City of sin
Come on, let me in
City of sin
Come on and let me in, oh
[Chorus]
Sweet soul sister
Keep on pushin' till the dawn
Sweet soul sister
Forever dancin' on and on
[Chorus]
Sweet soul sister
Keep on pushin' till the dawn
Sweet soul sister
Forever dancin' on and on, yeah
