[Chorus: Willie Nelson]
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do

[Verse: Diana Krall]
You know what? You're lovely
You know what? You are so lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

[Pre-Chorus: Willie Nelson & Diana Krall]
When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
Especially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, Heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

[Chorus: Willie Nelson & Diana Krall]
And that's why
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, I won't dance

[Post-Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]
Merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance
[Pre-Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]
When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
Especially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, heaven rest us (Heaven rest us)
I am not asbestos (I am not asbestos)

[Chorus: Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Both]
And that's why, I (And that's why)
I won't dance (I want my arms around you)
I won't dance (Oh, Willie, dance with me)
I won't dance (Merci beaucoup)
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance (So if you hold me in your arms)

[Outro: Diana Krall]
You might dance
You might dance
I'll ask you
You might dance, oh, Willie
You might dance, oh, Willie
You might dance
Dance with me
