I Won’t Dance (live, 1982-08-20: Altos de Chavón, La Romana, Dominican Republic)

[00:01.09] Ah, here's a song that we, we, we remember from the days of the great Fred Astaire, years ago
[00:06.89] Wonderful arrangement by Neil Hefti
[00:13.47] I won't dance, don't ask me
[00:17.10] I won't dance, don't ask me
[00:20.53] I won't dance, madame, with you
[00:27.21] My heart won't let my feet do things that they'd like to do
[00:37.01] You know what? You're lovely
[00:40.59] You know what? So lovely
[00:44.20] And, oh, what you do to me
[00:51.16] I'm just like an ocean wave that's bumped on the floor
[00:59.05] I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
[01:08.65] When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
[01:16.25] 'Specially when you do that Continental
[01:24.48] But this feeling isn't purely mental
[01:31.02] 'Cause Heaven rest us, I am not asbestos
[01:39.03] And that's why I won't dance, why should I?
[01:44.33] I won't dance, why could I?
[01:48.38] I won't dance, merci beaucoup
[01:54.93] I know that music leads the way to romance
[02:02.91] So If I hold you in my arms, I won't dance
[02:10.59]
[02:42.22] I mean, 'specially when you do that Continental
[02:51.24] Oh, but this feeling isn't purely mental
[02:57.89] Because Heaven rest us, I am not paid of asbestos
[03:06.07] And that's why
[03:07.45] I won't dance, how could I?
[03:11.20] I won't dance, why should I?
[03:14.93] I won't dance, merci beaucoup
[03:21.58] I heard that music leads the way, the way to romance
[03:29.06] So If I hold you in my arms
[03:37.45] I won't dance
[03:46.13]
