I Wanna Waltz

(Thelma Blackmon)



Well, we used to waltz that go out dancin'

Now you look like a cat a prancin'

I just stand with you at the floor while you swing out I holler for more

I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue.



Well, you gotta bop and you ain't happy

Till they play you somethin' snappy

All you wanna do is go cat go all I wanna do is slow down slow

I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue.



--- Instrumental ---



I jig on the stand while the bop keeps a goin'

With the music stuff you're poppin' and a blowin'

Looks like somethin' spite in you but you cut loose and be bop a loo

I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue.



Well, you gotta bop and you ain't happy

Till they play you somethin' snappy

All you wanna do is go cat go all I wanna do is slow down slow

I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue...
