LET'S DANCE AT THE MAKE BELIEVE BALLROOM
(Andy Razaf / Paul Denniker)

Mantovani & His Orch. - 1937
Let’s dance, any mansion or hall room
Is a make believe ballroom, Let’s dance.
Romance at the tip of your fingers
While the melody lingers, let’s dance, dance, dance
Start in swayin', while Joe Loss is playin'
His music is worth your while
Let this station give you dancipation
Simply turn the dial
And keep on dancin’ tho’ you’ve only a small room
Make it your ballroom, let’s dance
(Orchestral Interlude)
Just keep on dancin’ tho’ you’ve only a small room
Make it your ballroom, let’s dance
