[Intro]
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
[Verse 1]
To the left, to the right
Day or night, slide, ignite
Plié, shake-up, kick — a bold feat
Sashay away, through the beat...
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dance on fire, fuel desire, burn the floor,
Every move electric, we crave more and more.
NineStep, sashay, turn, glide — dos-à-dos,...
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
Front, back, in-between to beat
Plié, shake-up, kick — a bold feat,
NineStep moves — all — to the nines...
[Chorus / Main Hook 1]
NineStep to the nines, so fine
Sashay away, NineStep to the nines
Plié your way
NineStep to the nines— use intuition
NineStep to the nines— lose inhibition
NineStep to the nines— get ambition...
[Verse 2]
Scissor steps, turn and turn,
Dos-à-dos, slide, then burn.
Push, pull, sway, then glide;
Like Zorba moves, you got pride— to the nines....
[Bridge]
To the left, to the right,
Day or night ooooh........ excite........
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
Front, back, in-between to beat,
Plié, shake-up, kick — a bold feat.
Step, spin, sashay, twist —dos-à-dos...
NineStep moves — all — to the nines......
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Volcano sparks rise higher, blasts across the floor,
Rhythm shakes the ceiling, can’t hold back the roar.
NineStep, sashay, turn, glide — dos-à-dos
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
Front, back, in-between to beat
Plié, shake-up, kick — a bold feat,
NineStep moves — all — to the nines...
[Chorus / Main Hook 2]
NineStep to the nines, so fine
Sashay away, NineStep to the nines
Plié your way
NineStep to the nines— use intuition
NineStep to the nines— lose inhibition
NineStep to the nines— get ambition......
[Outro]
To the left, to the right
Day or night, ooooh........ excite........
Dance so neat, move to the beat,
Plié, shake-up, kick — a bold feat.
NineStep to the nines — dance and repeat......
[Instrumental Fade Out]
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
One, two — one, two, three
One, two — one, two, three
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
CHA-CHA — CHA-CHA— CHA-CHA
NineStep to the nines
[End Of Song]
Although I learned all of the basic dance steps from a former Arthur Murray dance instructor in high school, when rock 'n' roll came along, I modified the jitterbug and went with the flow of the music, doing a lot of footwork while I saw others moving from all the hips up. Stuck on the floor.
From 1987 to 92, I dated a professional dancer with a dance troupe. We often got applause from people in clubs with our dancing. But it was all her holding me up until I couldn't walk anymore and could only dance, to my frustration, in my electric wheelchair.
She is still dancing for clubs and parties at 82. I'm sure she could tackle your NineStep.
