It's something darling, the Continental
A way so dancing that's really ultra new
It's very subtle, the Continental
Because it does what you want it to do
It has a passion, the Continental
An invitation to moonlight and romance
It's quite a fashion, the Continental
Because you tell of your love while you dance
To bodies swayin', the Continental
And you're a-sayin', just what you're thinking' of
So keep on dancin' the Continental
For it's the song of romance and love
Your voice is gentle and sentimental
You'll know before the dance is through
You'll find while you're dancin'
That there's a rhythm in your heart and soul
A certain rhythm that you can't control
And you will do the Continental all the time
It's Continental, the Continental
It has a passion, the Continental
An invitation to moonlight and romance
It's quite a fashion, the Continental
Beautiful music, music, it's Continental
