[song]t:title"at the local dance"

[c]you're going out tonight,
with your[f]velvet jacket o-n,
your[g]drain-pipe trousers,
[c]your winkle pickers too,
you sure do look swell,
with[f]your neck tie as well,
[g]going to the dance,[c]with your baby doll.

[c]you pick up ypur gal,in your [f]blue con-vert-able,
she's[g]wearing her ra ra skirt,and[c]high heels as well,
[c]you bo-th loo-k so sma-rt,
while[f]your driving behind the wheel,
you[g]park up at the dance,
you'll be[c]jive-in' all night.

[c]the band is playing your favourite[f]rock n roll song,
you[g]start be boppin',[c]jivin' around the floor,
everyone joins in,you're[f]really havin' a ball,
[g]swingin' to the rock n roll beat,
shimmy[c]shuffle rockin' with me,
[c]we're at the local dance,
so[g]get into the beat with[c]me-e.

[c]at the end of the night,i'll [f]hold you in my arms,
when you[g]do the last dance with me-e,
[c]and now the night is over,                                             we've [f]really had a good time,
i'll [g]drive you back home,                                                 then[c] we'll ki--ss good-night,
to-[g]morrows a brand new day,
at the [f]local dance,we'll be[g] dancin' the night a-[c]way,
at the[f] local dance we'll be[g] dancin' the night a-[c]wa-y.
