"I'm Gonna Dance For You" Lyrics:
I'm gonna dance for you
Gonna dance your cares away
I'll do the hootchie-coo
And the Ta-ra-boom-de-ay
I'll sing a happy song while
I dance the whole night long
When the music begins
I'll give you some spins
I'll even invent a step or two
So on with the show
You'll love it I know
Oh, I'm going to dance for you
