I Won't Dance

TONY BENNETT · Cheek To Cheek 2014 · Track 05 of 20

Music: Jerome Kern · Lyrics: Dorothy Fields, Jimmy McHugh

I won't dance, don't ask me I won't dance, don't ask me I won't dance, Madame, with you My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do

You know what?, you're lovely And so what? I'm lovely And, 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 Especially when we do the Continental But this feeling isn't purely mental For, heaven rest us, we're not asbestos

And that's why I won't dance, why should I? I won't dance, how could I? I won't dance, merci beaucoup We know that music leads the way to romance, So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance

When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle Especially when you do the Continental But this feeling isn't purely mental For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

And that's why I won't dance, why should I? I won't dance, how could I? I won't dance, merci beaucoup We know that music leads the way to romance, So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance I won't dance, I won't dance, I won't dance I won't dance, dance, dance I won't dance Dance
