Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen, baby, to my plea
Won't you come dancing with me?
Be my baby and say yes
Or else I'm done for, I guess
[Verse 2]
To dance with you is thrilling
To my poor ego
So, baby, say you're willing to
Shake a leg, oh
[Verse 3]
Won't you Charleston with me?
Won't you Charleston with me?
And while the band is playing that
Old vodeodo
Around we will go
Together, we'll show them
How the Charleston is done
We'll surprise everyone
Just think what heaven is gonna be
If you will Charleston, Charleston with me
[Verse 4]
Won't you Charleston with me?
Won't you Charleston with me?
And while the band is playing that
Old vodeodo
Around we will go
Together, we'll show them
How the Charleston is done
We'll surprise everyone
Just think what heaven is gonna be
If you will Charleston, Charleston with me
[Verse 5]
Won't you Charleston with me?
Won't you Charleston with me?
And while the band is playing that
Old vodeodo
Around we will go
Together, we'll show them
How the Charleston is done
We'll surprise everyone
Just think what heaven is gonna be
If you will Charleston, Charleston, Charleston
If you will Charleston, Charleston with me
