Lyrics

Have you seen her?
So fine and pretty.  Fooled me with her style and ease.
And I feel her from across the room.
Yes, it's love in the third degree.

Ooh, baby, baby.
Come on, take a chance.
You're old enough to dance the night away.
Oh, come on, baby, dance the night away.

A live wire.
Barely a beginner, but just watch that lady go.
She's on fire, 'cause dancing gets her higher than
anything else she knows.

Ooh, baby, baby.
Won'tcha turn your head my way?
Ooh, baby, baby.
Well, don't skip romance, 'cause you're old enough to dance
the night away.
Oh, come on, baby, dance the night away.

Solo

Dance the night away.
Dance, dance, dance the night away.
(repeat and fade)
