All of the ladies attending the ball
Are requested to gaze in the faces
Found on the dance cards
Please then remember

And don't get to close
To one special one
He will take your defenses and run.
So we change partners

Time to change partners
You must change partners
Again
This is how most of our ladies grew up

At the country club dances
They learned how to handle the boys
Gently but firmly
They learned to say no

There were four more young men
Who were waiting in the color and the noise.
So we change partners
Time to change partners

You must change partners
Again
All of the ladies attending the ball
Are requested to gaze in the faces

Found on the dance cards
Please then remember
And follow your list
'Cause the dear things get hurt

And the broken hearts make you feel.
So we change partners
Time to change partners
You must change partners
Again
