You grab me 'fore I get my dinner down
We started in, poppin' round the town
To me it's solid labor, the jive you think is fun
And you forget about romance when the labor's done

Dancing, you're always dancing
Without romancing
Till dawn time
Lagging, my feet are lagging
My heart is dragging
At dawn time

Before you realize, the stars will leave the skies
And when the sun is shinin' up above
There ain't no time for love!

Dawn time, I think it is our time
To say that you'll be mine
It's dawn time

[Instrumental]

Dancing, you're always dancing
Without romancing
Lagging, ma feet are lagging
My heart is dragging
Before you realize, the stars will leave the skies
And when the sun is shinin' up above
There ain't no time for love

Dawn time, I think it's our time
To say you'll be mine
It's dawn time, dawn time
It's dawn time!
