Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythmIt's something daring, the Continental
A way of dancing that's really ultra new
It's very subtle, the Continental
Because it does what you want it to doIt has a passion, the Continental
An invitation to moonlight and romance
It's quite the fashion, the Continental
Because you tell of your love while you danceYour lips whisper so tenderly
His eyes answer your songTwo bodies swaying, the Continental,
And you are saying just what you're thinking of
So, keep on dancing the Continental
For it's a song of romance and of loveYou kiss while you're dancing
It's continental, oh oh oh, it's continental
You sing while you're dancing
Your voice is gentle, oh oh oh, and sentimentalYou'll know before the dance is through
That you're in love with him and he's in love with youYou'll find while you're dancing
That there's a rhythm in your heart and soul,
A certain rhythm that you can't control
And you will do the Continental all the timeBeautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
The Continental
