I Won't Dance Lyrics - Ella Fitzgerald

(Ella) 

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 wait here so ecstatically 

You just look and say emphatically; 

(Louis) 

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 

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

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 

(Ella) 

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 

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 

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 

(Louis) 

I won't dance, don't ask me 

I won't dance, don't ask me 

I will not dance, madame, with you 

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

You know what? You're kinda lovely 

(Ella) 

And so what? I'm lovely 

(Louis) 

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 

(Ella) 

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

Especially when you do the continental 

(Louis) 

But this feeling isn't purely mental 

For heaven rest us! I'm not asbestos, honey! 

(Ella) 

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
