Pretty Music Lyrics

[GOVERNOR JOHN SLATON]

(dancing with his wife SALLY)

Don't ya think that's pretty music?
Those fellas sure can play
This beat was really made for dancin'
Yes, ma'am, that's pretty music
I could dance the night away
You can hear that song's so sweet and true
But truth to tell, not half as sweet as you

(dancing with a contributor's wife, who is dancing stiffly and nervously)

Don't you think that's pretty music?
This song sure makes you smile
Shame you don't visit here more often
Yes, ma'am, that's pretty music—
Just listen for a while—
If your feet don't follow your commands
Just put yourself in ol' Jack Slaton's hands (dancing with LUCILLE)

That's it! That's right!
I found myself a partner who knows my style!
That's it! That's right!
A beautiful lady to dance awhile!
Seems you know what I need
I'll even take your lead—
We're dancin', yes indeed!
We're so light on our feet, we could dance for miles!

No, don'tcha stop that pretty music!
Sure makes me feel alive!
If I can dance with your today
Who cares what all those folks will say?
Your husband's fine, it's true
But I'm the lucky guy who gets to dance with you
So turn an ankle and let that music play!
