LYRICS by Dorothy Fields
Hey there cutes! Put on your dancing boots
And come dance with me,
Come dance with me on an evening for some Terpsichore!
Pretty face, I know a swinging place:
Come on dance with me!
Romance with me on a crowded floor.
I won't dance, don't ask me!
I won't dance, don't ask me!
I won't dance, monsieur, with you!
My heart won't let my feet do things they should do.
You know what, you're lovely,
You know what, you're so lovely,
And oh, what you do to me,
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore,
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor.
When you dance you're charming and you're gentle,
Especially when you do the Continental.
But this feeling isn't purely mental,
For heaven rest us
I'm not asbestos,
And that's why
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup!
I know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance!
She won’t dance, while the rhythm swings
What cuckoo things I’ll be sayin’!
For what is music but making love to music playing!
Please dance with me!
I know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in my arms,
You know I still won't dance!
