Shall We Dance? Lyrics - An American In Paris (original Broadway Cast Recording) - Original Broadway Cast Of An American In Paris

[MILO]: 

Shall we dance or keep on moping? 

Shall we dance or walk on air? 

Shall we give in to despair 

Or shall we dance with never a care 

Life is short, we're getting older 

Don't you be an also-ran 

You better dance little lady 

Dance little man, dance whenever you can 

Drop that long face, c'mon have your fling 

Why keep nursing the blues? 

If you want this whole world on a swing 

Put on your dancing shoes 

Stop wasting time 

Put on your dancing shoes 

Watch your spirits climb 

Life is short, we're getting older 

Don't you be an also-ran 

You better dance little lady 

Dance little man, dance whenever you can
