TONY ORLANDO AND DAWN
"Dance, Rosie, Dance"
(Dave Appell / Sandy Linzer)

You can say that I'm an old fashioned guy
Born to late
Take a look around you girl
I ain't got long to wait
Beautiful people we left behind
Are all coming back for a good old time
So

Dance Rosie, dance
Give the old boys a chance
I'll go tumbling
You'll wear a gown
We're steppin' out on the town
We'll meet the old gang tonight
Dancing under the moonlight
So
Dance Rosie, dance
Give the old boys a chance

And let those people tell me times are bad
I guess it's true
But I just can't help feeling glad
That I'm here with you
Someday I know our children will say
These were the good old yesterdays
So

Dance Rosie, dance
Give the old boys a chance
Feel the rhythm
The beat of my heart
No more dancing in the dark
Come on Rose
Stay for a while
Music and me will make you smile
So
Dance Rosie, dance
Give the old boys a chance

Don't look now
The world's holding hands
Dance Rosie dance
Give the old boys a chance
(Dance Rosie, dance)
Oh the world's holding hands
(Dance Rosie, dance)
Oh dance Rosie, dance
(Dance Rosie, dance)
Give the old boys a chance
