I Won't Dance Lyrics


I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, monsieur, with you
My heart won't let my feet do things they should doYou know what, you're lovely
And so what, you're lovely
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 floorWhen 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'm not asbestosAnd that's why
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beau coup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't danceWhen 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'm not asbestosAnd that's why
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beau coup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't danceI won't dance, I won't dance, I won't dance

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Ella Jane Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 in Newport News, VA – June 15, 1996), also known as Lady Ella (the First Lady of Song), was one of the most influential jazz singers of the 20th Century, the winner of thirteen Grammy Awards, the National Medal of Art presented by President Ronald Reagan and the Presidential Medal of Freedom presented by President George H. W. Bush. Gifted with a three-octave vocal range, she was noted for her purity of tone, near faultless phrasing and intonation, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing.
