"Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)" is a 1977 disco song recorded by Chic. It was the group's first hit, reaching #6 on both the pop and R&B charts.
The "yowsah, yowsah, yowsah" of the title, which appears as a spoken interjection in the middle of the song, is a quotation from They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, a 1969 film about a Depression-era dance marathon.
