The Perfect Partner
By: Marshall Chapman
1982
"When I sang Marshall's song, I thought of summer nights at
the beach long ago doing the shag to THE DRIFTERS records
and wanting desperately to fall in love. I still like to shag to
THE DRIFTERS."
Look over here there's a girl
I've never seen her before
Her eyes are lookin' straight at you
Across the crowded dance floor
Ooh ooh she's smilin'
What a beautiful sight
Oh I got a funny feelin'
She's gonna dance with you tonight
Chorus:
She could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't try to lead or follow
Perfect partner by your side
Ooh you got to take a chance
You got to let somebody move you
It can happen at a dance
If there's a rhythm you can groove to
Ooh here she comes ya'll
She's comin' straight to me
She's gonna ask me if I want to dance
I'll just have to wait and see
Chorus:
She could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't have to lead or follow
Perfect partner by my side
The worse thing that can happen is
She steps on your toes
But 'til you take that first step with her
How will you know, know, know
Chorus:
That she could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't have to lead or follow
Perfect partner by my side
Chorus:
She could be the perfect partner (she could be the perfect partner)
She can take it in her stride (she can take it in her stride)
She won't have to lead or follow (she won't have to lead or follow)
Perfect partner by my side
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
