Pretty Music

Don't you think that's pretty music?

Those fellas sure can play

That beat was really made for dancin'

Yes-a ma'am, that's pretty music

I could dance the night away

Listen how that song's so sweet and true

But truth to tell, not half as sweet as you

Don't you think that's pretty music?

This song sure makes you smile

Shame you don't visit here more often

Take a breath, it's pretty music

Just listen for a while

If your feet won't follow your commands

Just put yourself in Governor Slaton's hands

Now, now! My, my!

That's quite an introduction if I do say

Look out! Too high!

I'd best to hold tight or you'll fly away

I like a girl who's bold

But just keep it all controlled

Good Lord, I'm gettin' old

Just dancin' with you to that pretty music today

That's it! That's right!

I found myself a partner and ain't she sweet

That's it! That's right!

I found me a girl who can keep the beat

My steps and yours agree

What more could Heaven be?

My dear, I guarantee

When you're dancin' with me, all the world's at our feet

So don'tcha stop that pretty music

Sure makes me feel alive

If I can dance with you today

We'll show these other folks the way

Those girls are fine, it's true

But I'm a lucky guy 'cause I can dance with you

So turn that ankle and let the music play
