I've Got to Dance lyrics
I've Got to Dance
[Frenchman and Chorus]
I reside, I reside in a busy street
Cabarets on every side.
I have tried, I have tried, to control my feet but I can't unless they're
tied.
When I make, when I make up my weary mind into bed it's time to creep
I awake, I awake, in the street to find, that I'm dancing in my sleep.
I gotta dance, I gotta dance when I hear music calling to me.
I just adore, I just adore to glide around the floor.
When I am all through with one dance and we sit down to have a talk
Another tune seems to softly whisper "Get up and walk."
Oh won't you stop, oh won't you stop the captivating beautiful tune
For if you don't or if you won't, I don't know what I'll do.
I'd run away from each modulation, but I'm such a slave to syncopation
That I've got to dance until the orchestra gets through.
