I Won't Dance

[Chorus: Willie Nelson]

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, Madame, with you

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

[Verse: Diana Krall]

You know what? You're lovely

You know what? You are so 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

[Pre-Chorus: Willie Nelson & Diana Krall]

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 am not asbestos

[Chorus: Willie Nelson & Diana Krall]

And that's why

I won't dance, why should I?

I won't dance, how could I?

I won't dance, I won't dance

[Post-Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]

Merci beaucoup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance

[Pre-Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]

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 (Heaven rest us)

I am not asbestos (I am not asbestos)

[Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]

And that's why, I (And that's why)

I won't dance (I want my arms around you)

I won't dance (Oh, Willie, dance with me)

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 (So if you hold me in your arms)

[Outro: Diana Krall]

You might dance

You might dance

I'll ask you

You might dance, oh, Willie

You might dance, oh, Willie

You might dance

Dance with me
