I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't tempt me
I won't dance Messieur with you
My heart won't let me feet do things that they should do
You know what, you're handsome
You know what, you're handsome
But 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
Specially when you do The Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
'Cause heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
So that's why
I won't dance, why sould I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music lead the way to romance
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance
I know that music lead the way to romance
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance
I Won’t Dance was written by Jimmy McHugh & Dorothy Fields & Jerome Kern.
