(La, La. La, La, La, La, La)
Hey-ah-ay-ay
(La, La. La, La, La, La, La)
Oh, baby
(La, La. La, La, La, La, La)
Hey-ah-ay-ay
You can have this dance with me
You can hold my hand and
Whisper in my ear sweet words that I love to hear
(Whisper sweet words in my ear) Oh, baby
Don't be shy (don't be shy)
Just take-a your ti-ime (just take your time)
I'd like to get to know you (like to get to know you)
I'd like to make you mine (like to make you mine)
I've been wai-aiting, standing here so patiently
Fo-oh-oh-or you to come over and have this dance with me
And my number is Beechwood 4-5789
You can call me up and have a date any old time

Don't be shy (don't be shy)
Just take-a your ti-ime (just take your time)
I'd like to get to know you (like to get to know you)
I'd like to make you mine (like to make you mine)
Beechwood 4-5789
You can call me up and have a date any old time
And my number is Beechwood 4-5789
You can call me up and have a date any old time
FADE
Beechwood 4-5789
You can call me up and have a date any old time
