Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey baby, how 'bout this dance?
Why?
'Cause it takes two to do this dance
[Verse 2]
Takes two to tango, two to tango
Two to really get the feelin' of romance
Let's do the tango, do the tango
Do the dance of love
[Verse 3]
Ah, you can sail on a ship by yourself
Take a nap or a nip by yourself
Ah, you can get into debt on your own
There's lots of things that you can do alone but
[Verse 4]
Takes two to tango, two to tango
Two to really get the feelin' of romance
Let's do the tango, do the tango
Do the dance of love
[Verse 5]
You can cling to the moon by yourself
Take a laugh like a loon by yourself
Spend a lot, go to pot on your own
There's lots of things that you can do alone but, listen here
[Verse 6]
Takes two to tango, two to tango
Two to really get the feeling of romance
Let's do the tango, do the tango
Do the dance of love, O's it
[Verse 7]
Yeah, them cats is robbin' that town
Look here, who's gonna dance with me now?
[Verse 8]
'Cause it takes two to tango, two to tango
Two to really get the feeling of romance
Let's do the tango, do the tango
Do the dance of love
[Verse 9]
Takes two to tango 'cause that's the song of love
