Shall We Dance (From King and I) - Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers

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

Let’s not be an also-ran

You better dance with the lady

Dance, little man

Dance whenever you can

(spoken)

Let’s go to the Bal de Beaux Arts

What’s my part of the deal?

Be nice to me and enjoy yourself

Are you sure that’s all?

Drop that long face

C’mon, have your fling

Why keep nursing the blues?

If you want this old world on a string

Put on your dancing shoes

Stop wasting time

Put on your dancing shoes

Watch your spirits climb

Life is short, we’re growing older

Let’s not be an also-ran

You better dance with the lady

Dance, little man

Dance whenever you can
