Well, I [B7]used to smile when I was a pup,
sailing [B7]down the Nile in a china cup
with the [E7]recipe for a lovely day,
sticking [B7]out of my back pocket.
But it w[E7]asnt always such a pretty sight,
we used to fight like [Ab7]cats and dogs
till we [E7]made it up in the [B7]ballroom.
B[B7]allroom dancing [E7]made a man of me.
[B7]One, two, three, four, [E7]I just plain adore you.
B[B7]allroom dancing, s[E7]een it on T.V.
[B7]I got what I got from ballroom [E7]dancing b[A7]ig B.[B7]D.
Well, I used to fly when I was a kid
and I didnt cry if it hurt a bit.
On a carpet ride to foreign land
at the time of Davy Crokett.

But it wasnt always such a pretty sight,
cause we used to fight like cats and dogs
till we made it up in the ballroom.
Ballroom dancing made a man of me.

Well, the kids have flown to a better life.
Now the boys a man and the girls his wife.
And the summertime never seems to last
when youre riding on a rocket.
But it wasnt always such a pretty sight,
we used to fight like cats and dogs
till we made it up in the ballroom.
Ballroom dancing made a man of me.
One and a two and a three and four, I just plain adore you.
