Lyrics[]
(Chorus)
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
You are a sailor, a taylor, a jailer
You are from Ghana, Gagnana, Montana
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
So lady killing, So thrilling, I'm willing
Come on, let's do The midnight dance
(Verse 1)
The band is playing
And you are saying:
("We should be thinking)
(About some drinking")
Well, mister Handsome
Why don't you get one
("I'm sorry, honey)
(I'm short off money")
(Pre-chorus)
We dance the night away
We have no time to play
(Chorus)
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
You are a sailor, a taylor, a jailer
You are from Ghana, Gagnana, Montana
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
So lady killing, So thrilling, I'm willing
Come on, let's do The midnight dance
(Verse 2)
The band goes Latin
His eyes grow satin:
("Let's do the tango)
(And the fandango")
Oh, Yo te quiero
My caballero
("Bring me tequila)
(From Venezuela")
We dance the night
(Pre-chorus)
We dance the night away
We have no time to play
(Chorus)
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
You are a sailor, a taylor, a jailer
You are from Ghana, Gagnana, Montana
Hey, midnight dancer, oho-oho
Hey, big romancer, oho-oho
So lady killing, So thrilling, I'm willing
Come on, let's do The midnight dance
Hey midnight dancer
