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 old Cougie, my what a pair   Just doin' the rhumba as no one else dared   Slidin' and glidin' 'cross Hollywood floors   But they don't dance like Carmen no more      Well now she had a big hat, my it was high   Had bananas and mangoes all piled to the sky   How she could balance it, I wouldn't dare   But they don't dance like Carmen nowhere      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      Ten cents dance, I might take a chance   But they don't dance like Carmen no more
