When we start a'dancing I'm a nervous wreck,
your kinda shaking has a rare effect
I can't stop a'flipping over what you're doing,
that kinda beat can drive a man to ruin
Slow down baby, can ya hear me shout
Stop! You're knockin' me out

Crazy 'bout your rhythm when you're rocknrolling,
all I'm asking honey is that you control it
Your dancing is entrancing, oh, yes indeedy,
but my one objection is you're much too speedy
Slow down baby, can ya hear me shout
Stop! You're knockin' me out

We go dancing, and everything is fine,
We're romancing, the music is divine,
then the band starts to syncopate,
you jump from thirty three to seventy eight

Spinning like a record on a record machine,
you've got me going dizzy over your routine
The way ya shake your shoulders and the way ya twist 'em
starts a chain reaction in my nervous system
Slow down baby, can ya hear me shout
Stop! You're knockin' me out

Oh now, we go dancing, everything is fine,
we're romancing, the music is divine
Then the band starts to syncopate,
you jump from thirty three to seventy eight

Spinning like a record on a record machine,
you've got me going dizzy over your routine
The way ya shake your shoulders and the way ya twist 'em
starts a chain reaction in my nervous system
Slow down baby, can ya hear me shout
Stop! You're knockin' me out
Slow down baby, can ya hear me shout
Stop!
