Fruitcake - My Feet Won't Move

Artiestinformatie

Land	Nederland

De Nederlandse discogroep Fruitcake werd opgericht in 1980 door Jan-Paul Driessen en Rob Taekema.

Hun debuutsingle My Feet Won’t Move verscheen in 1980. De single I Like The Way samen met Bennie Baan uit 1982 werd ook een hit, maar mocht het succes van de eerste single niet evenaren. De groep maakte in totaal twee albums en daarvan brachten ze zeven singles uit. In 1984 ging de groep uit elkaar.

Na 25 jaar brengt Rob Taekema de originele bezetting weer bij elkaar voor een eenmalig reünieconcert, onder de noemer Rob Taekema & Friends From The Past, Present And Future.

Songtekst

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (Oh no)
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (Now, listen)

I lived in a house
That's built in front of a disco, yeah, yeah
So I'm supposed to be familiar
With that kind of music, alright

But all I get is a headache
The headache keeps me awake
My dancin' style is just a plague

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (No, no, no, no, no)
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (Get that funky stuff)

You know sometimes there are times
That I can't hold myself, no, I can't hold it in
So I put on my fancy clothes
And I add up where I'm gonna dancin' on, yeah, yeah, well down

But when I step to a lady
And ask her for a ball
She gladly kick me in my balls
Oooh, and that hurts

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (No, I don't get it)
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff

I wish someone would tell me what I got to do
To get involved in the nightlife, you don't know what I'm going through
Sitting in this room of mine, night after night
Waiting for a star that is showing me the light

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff

Play it, Bernhard, partner

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (Well, I am waiting for a sign)
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (And I show you that way, yeah)

My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff
(Show me the way, show me the way, show me the way, yeah)
My feet won't move
I just don't get that funky stuff (Show me the way, yeah)
