[1st verse:] Dancing teacher, give us a chance We came here to learn how to dance That brand new dance they call the Fox Trot The lovin' Fox Trot If you'll kindly show us the way Any price we're willing to pay Take us each in turn We're all ready to learn [Refrain:] [Boys:] Dancing teacher show us how to do the Fox Trot [Mrs. Castle:] You'll have to watch your step [Boys:] Won't you come and show us how to do the Fox Trot? [Mrs. Castle:] You'll have to watch your step [Boys:] Tell us what to do [Mrs. Castle:] You must follow me [Boys:] Can we do it too? [Mrs. Castle:] Very easily [Boys:] Kindly show us [Mrs. Castle:] Watch me, watch me [Boys:] That dance is simply great And it's so up-to-date It beats the Tango, One-Step And the others we know so Dancing teacher, once again Show us how it's done and then We'll do the Fox Trot the whole night long [2nd verse:] Dancing teacher, do it some more Glide us gently over the floor Until we learn to dance the Fox Trot The lovin' Fox Trot Really it's a barrel of fun Though it's not so easily done If you'll see us through We'll be doing it too
