[1st verse:]
|
Dancing teacher, give us a chance
|
We came here to learn how to dance
|
That brand new dance they call the Fox Trot
|
The lovin' Fox Trot
|
If you'll kindly show us the way
|
Any price we're willing to pay
|
Take us each in turn
|
We're all ready to learn
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
[Boys:] Dancing teacher show us how to do the Fox Trot
|
[Mrs. Castle:] You'll have to watch your step
|
[Boys:] Won't you come and show us how to do the Fox Trot?
|
[Mrs. Castle:] You'll have to watch your step
|
|
[Boys:] Tell us what to do
|
[Mrs. Castle:] You must follow me
|
[Boys:] Can we do it too?
|
[Mrs. Castle:] Very easily
|
[Boys:] Kindly show us
|
[Mrs. Castle:] Watch me, watch me
|
|
[Boys:]
|
That dance is simply great
|
And it's so up-to-date
|
It beats the Tango, One-Step
|
And the others we know so
|
|
Dancing teacher, once again
|
Show us how it's done and then
|
We'll do the Fox Trot the whole night long
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
Dancing teacher, do it some more
|
Glide us gently over the floor
|
Until we learn to dance the Fox Trot
|
The lovin' Fox Trot
|
Really it's a barrel of fun
|
Though it's not so easily done
|
If you'll see us through
|
We'll be doing it too
|
