Swinging on the Dance Floor 1950s–1960s Oldies | Female Lead Vocal | Swing & Doo-Wop [Intro – Female Vocal, Soft Doo-Wop Harmonies] Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, oh yeah! Doo-wah, doo-wah, all night long! Ooh, baby, turn the music up! Tonight we’re gonna fall in love! [Verse 1] I put on my favorite dress tonight, Curled my hair and got it just right. Red lipstick and my dancing shoes, I’m heading downtown to shake these blues! The jukebox plays that sweet old tune, Everybody’s dancing beneath the moon. Then you walked in and caught my eye, Oh, handsome stranger, don’t pass me by! [Pre-Chorus] You held out your hand and smiled at me, Said, “Pretty little lady, come dance with me!” My heart started racing, what could I say? One little dance swept my troubles away! [Chorus – Upbeat Female Lead & Backing Harmonies] Swinging on the dance floor, making memories! Spinning round and round to those sweet melodies! Oh, baby, baby, hold me tight, We’re gonna dance away the night! Rocking to the left, swinging to the right, Everything about this evening feels just right! Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, can’t you see? You’re making sweet memories with me! [Verse 2] The boys look sharp in their Sunday best, The girls all laugh in their pretty new dresses. The piano’s jumping, the saxophone cries, There’s a little bit of magic in your blue eyes. You spin me around, then pull me near, Whisper something sweet I love to hear. My feet keep moving, my heart beats fast, I hope this beautiful night will last! [Pre-Chorus] The band keeps playing our favorite song, Everybody’s singing and clapping along. I never believed in love at first sight, Till you walked into my world tonight! [Chorus – Full Band, Handclaps & Harmonies] Swinging on the dance floor, making memories! Spinning round and round to those sweet melodies! Oh, baby, baby, hold me tight, We’re gonna dance away the night! Rocking to the left, swinging to the right, Everything about this evening feels just right! Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, can’t you see? You’re making sweet memories with me! [Bridge – Slow Romantic Female Vocal] Then the music slows, the lights turn blue, And suddenly there’s only me and you. I rest my head upon your chest, Of all the nights, this one’s the best. You whisper softly, “Will you stay?” I smile and say, “Don’t go away.” If tomorrow comes and we’re apart, I’ll keep this dance inside my heart. [Instrumental – Vintage Tenor Saxophone & Piano Solo] [Verse 3 – Playful Female Vocal] My girlfriends laugh and wave goodbye, They see that sparkle in my eyes. The clock says midnight, but I don’t care, There’s still some magic floating in the air! My heels are tired, my feet are sore, But darling, I keep asking for more. One more record, one more song, One more chance to dance along! [Final Chorus – Powerful Female Lead & Doo-Wop Harmonies] Swinging on the dance floor, making memories! Spinning round and round to those sweet melodies! Oh, baby, baby, hold me tight, We’re gonna dance away the night! Rocking to the left, swinging to the right, Everybody’s smiling underneath the lights! Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, can’t you see? You’re making sweet memories with me! Oh, swinging, swinging, all night long! Dancing to our favorite song! Take my hand and don’t let go, I love you more than you’ll ever know! [Outro – Female Vocal, Soft Doo-Wop Fade] Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sweet memories… Doo-wah, doo-wah, just you and me… The lights go down, the music ends, But in my dreams we’ll dance again. Oh, baby… One more dance… One more kiss… One sweet romance… Swinging on the dance floor… Making memories… Sha-la-la… Forever you and me…
