Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 2]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 3]
On the town
Sequins, evening gowns
Climb those stairs
To that ballroom in the air
Get to poppin'
[Verse 4]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? (Come along, we can get it on)
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 5]
If you dare
Dream of yesteryear
In the air
Do a step with Fred Astaire
Get your top hat
[Verse 6]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 7]
You can be
What you want to be
Come and waltz like me
Or a hot-steppin' boogie
Funk in the pocket
[Verse 8]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? (Come along, get it on)
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 9]
No one stays
In downtown these days
Country call
Got us, one and all (Sweet surrender now)
Before we end
Let me recommend
What to do
When your heart is light or blue (Gotta get to steppin')
[Verse 10]
Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof?
[Verse 11]
Let's party, my good friends, come on
[Verse 12]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
[Verse 13]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
[Verse 14]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
[Verse 15]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
[Verse 16]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
[Verse 17]
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
Party, come, let's party, y'all
Party, come, let's party now
