Shall We Dance? lyrics

Drop that long face

Come on have your fling

Why keep nursing the blues?

If you want this old world on a string

Put on your dancing shoes

Stop wasting time

Put on your dancing shoes

Watch your spirits climb

Shall we dance

Or keep on mopin'?

Shall we dance

And walk on air?

Shall we give in to despair?

Or shall we dance with never a care?

Life is short

We're growing older

Don't you be an also-ran

You'd better dance, little lady

Dance, little man

Dance whenever you can.
