| Lyrics:Marshall Chapman Music:Marshall Chapman | |
| '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 | |
