Shall We Dance - Oscar Peterson

Drop that long face!

C’mon 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

Or walk on air?

Shall we give in To despair

Or shall we dance with never a care

Life is short

We’re getting older

Don’t you be An also-ran

You better dance little lady

Dance little man

Dance whenever you can
