But I'm gonna swing you around this floor come dance with me

I'll sit and wait till you do when you're through, come dance with me

Just 'cause he spent the dime to phone ya

And 20 bucks for the time he's shown ya

That doesn't give him the right to own ya, dance with me

But baby, your feet I need

I've turned into an ever-loving deed, aye!

You come into my arms, say goodbye to the guy and dance with me
Inviting the listener to join the speaker and leave the other person behind.
Leave all your charms in my care, take your dare and dance with me
Encouraging the listener to trust the speaker and dance together, leaving behind any other attractions.
He may have brought you here, all right

But you're gonna leave with me tonight, come dance with me
