The song I Like to Lead when I Dance is performed by Frank Sinatra .
A little voice, keeps talking to me
From way down deep inside
What does this voice, keep saying to me?
It says, "Pa*s this affair and pa*s it wide"
You may be a puzzle
But I like the way the parts fit
Still that little voice says
"Go get your track shoes put them on and git"
We could go the distance, and find us romance
I like your persistence, your style and your stance
There's only one problem, the tiniest problem
I like to lead when I dance
Your eyes do the speaking, they talk with each glance
My will-power's creaking, I might take a chance
And though you're the charmer who could bend my armor
I like to lead when I dance
I like to steer the car whenever I drive
And hold the door ajar when we arrive
So, if it's decided that this is romance
My sweet, I'll repeat in advance
I like to lead when I dance
I like to lead when I dance
When Adam bit the fruit as fashions were then
He got that fig-leaf suit, for which, Amen
So, if it's decided I'm wearing the pants
Then Eve, I'd say we've got romance
I like to lead, I set the speed, I like to lead when I dance
When I dance, when I dance, when I dance
