(words & music by Harlan Collins)

You can dance all around the question
If that's what you really want to do
But I don't want a one night stand
or a sordid rendevouz
We've had enough lonely nights
And it just doesn't seem right
To wait for the reasons when I want you

I can't wait for an answer, Little Dancer
I can't wait for an answer, Little Dancer
Time is passing on
I can't wait that long

You've been burned and deceived
Baby, you'd better believe
We ain't playing no games
but if you go by the rules, girl,
I'm gonna get fooled
And go back home again
