Tillerman tells a story
He turns a heavy row
Enter the circle
Where our spirits sowed by soul
Move with the rhythm
Freedom will be there
On this first occasion
When two enemies can share
The secrets of this mystery
Let the message sing
Ancient wisdom tells us
Here's where it begins

Dance dance 'til the break of day
Dance all our cares away
Dance dance dance the night away
Dance let the moon light the way
Silvery stars start to shine
And the moonlight is fine
Everybody dance

A call of the procession is echoing
Through the valleys and the mountains
You can hear it sing
Voices talk to the living
In a perfect trance
From the body to the soul
It flows on its path
The sound remains a mystery
Let the message sing
Ancient wisdom tells us
Here's where it begins

Dance dance 'til the break of day
Dance all our cares away
Dance dance dance the night away
Dance let the moon light the way
Silvery stars shine at night
And the moonlight is bright
Everybody dance

Down in the bottom the Creole heat
And it's moved into the street
Under open skies
The whole night's a celebration
And I never want it to leave
And I feel the jubilation
And I never wanna let it go
So in our possession
We have the power to make the fire glow

Dance dance 'til the break of day
Dance all our cares away
Dance dance dance the night away
Dance let the moon light the way
Dance dance 'til the break of day
Dance all our cares away
Dance dance dance the night away
Dance let the moon light the way
Silvery stars start to shine
And the moonlight is bright
Everybody dance
