If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, ask your mama
If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper

I spend my money on you, every dime
You even told me you had a good time
The night is through and we’re all alone
You said it’s time that you went home

You’ve been wined and dined in front of me
Just how nice must I be
I played the tune, you dug the beat
Now come on, girl, be nice to me

If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, ask your mama
If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper

Come on
Come on, girl
Come on
Come on, darlin’

You say that you haven’t known me long
How much longer will this go on
Girl, my patience is wearin’ thin
I wanna be more than just a friend

Girl, I need some love desperately
Stop teasin’, girl, take care of me
I played the tune, you dug the beat
Now come on, girl, be nice to me

If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, ask your mama
If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, oh, yeah

Come on
Come on, girl
Come on
Come on, darlin’

I played the tune
You dug the beat
Now come on, girl
Be nice to me

If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, ask your mama
If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper, ask your mama

If you dance to the music, don’t you know
You got to pay to the piper
