JUST A DANCING SWEETHEART
(Peter DeRose / Charles Tobias)

Gracie Fields

Also recorded by: Ray Noble & his New Mayfair Dance Orchestra



I go to dances, have boyfriends galore
Still I'm as blue as can be
What good are dances when I'm yearning for
Something that means more to me
Most girls have sweethearts to love and caress
I'm not that lucky I guess

I'm just a dancing sweetheart
That's all I seem to be
While I dream of love and a real romance
All they're thinking of is another dance
"Dearest I love you" they croon in my ear
It's only the words of a song that they hear
I'm just a dancing sweetheart
And nobody cares for me

(Musical Break)

"Dearest I love you" they croon in my ear
It's only the words of a song that they hear
I'm just a dancing sweetheart
And nobody cares for me
