Shall We Dance? lyrics
by George Gershwin
[Verse]
Drop that long face, come on, have your fling
Why keep nursing the blues?
If you want this whole world on a string
Put on your dancing shoes
Stop wasting time
Put on your dancing shoes
Watch your spirits climb
[Chorus]
Shall we dance or keep on moping?
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
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
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
