《I’d Rather Charleston》歌词

[00:00:00] Lady, Be Good! - I'd Rather Charleston (女士，乖点！ - 我宁愿去跳查尔斯顿舞) - George Gershwin/Eric Stern

[00:00:04] I've seen for days that you've got

[00:00:06] The ways that must be checked

[00:00:08] In you I never can detect

[00:00:11] The slightest signs of intellect

[00:00:15] You're mad on dances think

[00:00:16] Of the chances you neglect

[00:00:19] You never seem inclined to use your mind

[00:00:22] And it's quite plain to see

[00:00:25] That I'm the brains of the family

[00:00:31] Take a lesson from me

[00:00:33] I'd rather Charleston

[00:00:35] Charleston

[00:00:36] Think of what you might be

[00:00:38] I'd rather Charleston

[00:00:40] Charleston

[00:00:41] I'm disappointed in you and your ways

[00:00:47] I'm double-jointed

[00:00:48] There's no sensation like syncopation

[00:00:52] Will you let me know why

[00:00:54] I'd rather Charleston

[00:00:55] Charleston

[00:00:57] That's the sort of thing

[00:00:58] I would never do

[00:01:01] So just leave it behind and

[00:01:03] Give your mind to something new

[00:01:06] I'd rather Charleston

[00:01:08] Oh no

[00:01:08] Charleston Charleston with you

[00:01:12] Your way of living soon

[00:01:14] Will be giving me a pain

[00:01:16] You just repeat one refrain

[00:01:19] You use your feet and not your brain

[00:01:23] Something has got you

[00:01:24] I don't know what you hope to gain

[00:01:27] And after all I've done

[00:01:29] It's not much fun to have to have a sister who's

[00:01:34] Got her brain in her dancing shoes

[00:01:39] So take a lesson from me

[00:01:41] I'd rather Charleston

[00:01:43] Charleston

[00:01:44] When you're older you'll see

[00:01:46] I'd rather Charleston

[00:01:48] Charleston

[00:01:49] The great improvements I looked for in you

[00:01:55] I like improvements

[00:01:57] It makes you plastic just like elastic

[00:02:00] Say don't you ever keep cool

[00:02:02] I'd rather Charleston Charleston

[00:02:04] Oh no that's the sort of thing fullish people do

[00:02:09] Say haven't you read what Lincoln said in sixty-two

[00:02:13] Yeah

[00:02:14] Well what'd he say

[00:02:15] I'd rather Charleston

[00:02:16] Oh no

[00:02:17] Charleston Charleston with you

[00:02:20] Not dance

[00:03:20] I'd rather Charleston

[00:03:21] Charleston

[00:03:23] Charleston with you
