Young, strong Oh, I was something in days gone by With some girl Who just happened to catch my eye Slim, straight, light on my feet Shoes just skimming the ground One-two-three, one-two-three Follow the beat around, around, around All night circling the floor Till dawn lit up the sky No one younger than I In days gone by And then I met Mrs. Maraczek And ever since, I've danced only with her I bet you think that's incredible (No) Young, strong Oh, I was something in days gone by (Mrs. Maraczek's a beautiful woman) With some girl Who just happened to catch my eye (If I could find the right girl) Slim, straight, light on my feet Shoes just skimming the ground One-two-three, one-two-three (Fact is, I'm a terrible dancer) Follow the beat around, around, around (I can do it with my hands all right) All night circling the floor (I always have trouble with my feet) Till dawn lit up the sky No one younger than I In days gone by
