Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire - Shall We Dance?

Drop that long face
Come on, have your fling
Why keep nursing the blues?
If you want this whole world on a swing

Put on your dancing shoes
Stop wasting time
Put on your dancing shoes
Watch your spirits climb

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
Don't you be an also-ran
You better dance little lady
Dance little man, dance whenever you can

George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
