[fa]
Here she comes down the street,
[bc]
My oh my, ain't she sweet!
[fa]
Why, here comes my hot toddy!
[bc]
Look out!  Over my dead body!

I'll capture her heart singing!
[fa]
Just wait until she geta a load o' my dancing, yeah!
[bc]
Just wait till I start singing!
I'll just take her strolling down the road with my dancing!

[bc]
I can't go wrong,
A tender song
And she'll discover my charms!
[fa]
Some fancy taps
And she'll collapse,
And fall right into my arms!
[bc]
Get him!
I'll capture her heart singing!
[fa]
Oh, no, you haven't a chance
When I go into my dance!

[bc]
I'll take you through life singing!
La-da-da-de, la-he-ha-ha-da-de, la-da-da-de!
Bom-bom, bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom!
[fa]
I'll make you my wife dancing!

[ml]
If you could dance instead of sing,
I'd learn to love you somehow!
If you could sing instead of dance,
I'd take you home with me now!

[fa]
Hmm!
Bom-bom-bom-bom-bom, bom-bom-bom-bom-bom!
Boo-bo-boo-bo-boo-bo! 9whistle)
[bc]
Hey stinky, look at me, I'm dancin'!

[ml]
The way you sing
Don't mean a thing,
You'd better stick to your dance!
And as for you,
Your dance won't do,
You'll have to sing for romance!

[bc]
I'll capture her heart
[fa]
I'll capture her heart
[bc]
Singing!
[fa]
Dancing!
