I Won't Dance

I Won't Dance - Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong (路易斯·阿姆斯特朗)

Written by：Jerome Kern

Think of what you're losing by constantly refusing to dance with me

You'd be the idol of France with me

And yet you stand there and shake your foolish head dramatically

While I wait here so ecstatically

You just look and say emphatically

Nah this isn't this has a reason

I won't dance don't ask me

I won't dance don't ask me

I won't dance madam with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do

Yes

You know what you're lovely

And so what

You're still lovely

And oh what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

Yes

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us I'm not asbestos

And that's why

I won't dance

Why should I

I won't dance

How could I

I won't dance merci beaucoup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance

I won't dance don't ask me

I won't dance don't ask me

I won't dance monsieur with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do

You know what you're handsome

And so what

You're handsome

But oh what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us I'm not asbestos

And that's why

I won't dance

Why should I

I won't dance

How could I

I won't dance merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance

Yes

I won't dance don't ask me

I won't dance don't ask me

I will not dance madame with you

Yes

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do

Yeah

You know what

You're kinda lovely

And so what I'm lovely

But oh what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us I'm not asbestos honey

Waa

And that's why

I won't dance

Why should I

I won't dance

How could I

I won't dance merci beau coup merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance
