《Arthur Murray Taught Me》歌词

[00:00:00] Arthur Murray Taught Me - Jimmy Dorsey

[00:00:08] Life was so peaceful at the laundry

[00:00:13] Life was so calm and serene

[00:00:17] Life was tres gay

[00:00:20] Till that unlucky day

[00:00:23] I happened to read that magazine

[00:00:27] Why did I read that advertisement

[00:00:31] Where it says "Since I rumba Jim thinks I'm sublime

[00:00:36] Why oh why Did I ever try

[00:00:42] When I didn't have the talent I didn't have the money

[00:00:47] And teacher did not have the time Boy

[00:00:55] Arthur Murray Taught me dancin' in a hurry;

[00:01:01] I had a week to spare

[00:01:03] He showed me the ground work The walkin' around work

[00:01:06] And told me take it from there

[00:01:10] Arthur Murray Then advised me not to worry;

[00:01:15] It would come out all right

[00:01:18] To my way of thinkin' My dance is stinkin'

[00:01:21] I don't know my left from my right

[00:01:25] The people around me can all-sing

[00:01:27] "A-one and a-two and a-three"

[00:01:30] But any resemblance to waltzing

[00:01:32] Is just coincidental with me

[00:01:35] 'Cause Arthur Murray Taught me dancin' in a hurry;

[00:01:41] And so I took a chance

[00:01:43] To me it resembles The nine day trembles

[00:01:46] But he guarantees it's a dance

[00:02:12] My tango resembles a two-step

[00:02:15] My rumba makes people turn pale

[00:02:18] My conga goes into a goose-step

[00:02:20] Till the FBI is doggin' my trail

[00:02:23] 'Cause Arthur Murray Taught me dancin' in a hurry;

[00:02:29] Maybe the stars were wrong

[00:02:31] If I ain't a menace To Ruth St Dennis

[00:02:34] I'll do until one comes along

[00:02:39] Turkey trot

[00:02:40] Or gavotte

[00:02:41] Don't know which

[00:02:41] Don't know what

[00:02:42] Jitterbug

[00:02:43] Bunny hug

[00:02:43] Long as you

[00:02:44] Cut a rug

[00:02:44] Walk the dog

[00:02:45] Do the frog

[00:02:46] Lindy hop

[00:02:46] Till you drop

[00:02:47] Ball the jack

[00:02:48] Back to back

[00:02:49] Cheek to cheek

[00:02:49] Till you're weak

[00:02:53] You've heard of Pavlova

[00:02:54] Well Jack move over

[00:02:55] Make way for the queen of the dance
