Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire

Must you dance every dance 
With the same fortunate man? 
You have danced with him since the music began
Won't you change partners and dance with me? 

Must you dance quite so close
With your lips touching his face? 
Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place? 
Won't you change partners and dance with me? 

Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him 
He's wanted on the telephone

You've been locked in his arms 
Ever since heaven-knows-when
Won't you change partners and then
You may never want to change partners again

Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him 
He's wanted on the telephone

You've been locked in his arms 
Ever since heaven-knows-when
Won't you change partners and then
You may never have to change partners again
