Hey there cutes,
Put on your dancin' boots
And come, dance with me;
Come dance with me,
What an evenin' for
Some terpsichore!
Pretty face,
I know a swingin' place,
Come on, dance with me;
Romance with me on a crowded floor.
And while the rhythm swings what lovely things I'll be sayin',
'Cause what is dancin' but makin' love set to music, playin'!
When the band
Begins to leave the stand,
And folks start to roam,
As we walk home,
Cheek to cheek we'll be;
Come on, come on, come on,
Come on and dance with me!
Hey there cutes,
Put on your Baisie boots
And come, dance with me;
Come dance with me,
What an evenin' for
Some terpsichore!
Pretty face,
I know a swingin' place,
Come on, dance with me;
Romance with me on a crowded floor.
And while the rhythm swings what cuckoo things I'll be sayin',
For what is dancin' but makin' love set to music, playin'!
When the band
Begins to leave the stand,
And folks start to roam,
As we walk home,
Cheek to cheek we'll be;
Come on, come on, come on,
Come on, come on, come on,
Come on and dance with me!
