ฟังเพลงI'd Rather Charleston

I'd Rather Charleston - Fred Astaire

I've seen for days that you've got

The ways that must be checked

In you I never can detect

The slightest signs of intellect

Your mad on dances, think of the chances you neglect

You never seem inclined to use your mind

And it's quite plain to see

That I'm the brains of the family

Take a lesson from me

I'd rather Charleston Charleston?

Think of what you might be

I'd rather Charleston Charleston?

I'm disappointed in you and your ways

I'm double jointed

If There's no sensation like syncopation

Will you let me know why

I'd rather Charleston Charleston?

That's the sort of thing I would never do

So, leave it behind and give your mind to something new

I'd rather Charleston Charleston, Charleston with you

Your way of living soon will be giving me a pain

You just repeat that same refrain

You use your feet and not your brain

Something has got you

I don't know what you hope to gain

And after all I've done

It's not much fun to have a Sister who's

Got her brain in her dancing shoes

So, take a lesson from me I'd rather Charleston

Charleston? When you're older you'll see

I'd rather Charleston Charleston?

The great improvements I looked for in you

I like improvements

If you make new plastic just like elastic

Say, don't you ever keep cool I'd rather Charleston

Oh no, that's the sort of thing silly people do

Hey, haven't you read what Lincoln said in sixty-two

Yeh! what'd he say?

I'd rather Charleston Charleston, Charleston with you

Not me
