Artist: Billy Bland (peak Billboard position #7 in 1960)

Words and Music by Henry Glover and Carl Spencer



lyrics in (parentheses) sung by backup group only)



(Little wallflower on the shelf, standing by herself)

(Never had the nerve to take a chance, so let the little girl dance)



Let the little girl dance, let the little girl dance

She never danced before so let her on the floor (so let her on the floor)

Let the little girl dance, let the little girl dance

She wants to give it a try, so let the little girl by (so let the little girl by)



Shes been a little wallflower on the shelf, standing by herself

Now she got the nerve to take a chance, so let the little girl dance



Let the little girl through, she wants to pass by you

Buddy, cant you see she wants to dance with me (she wants to dance with me)



Shes been a little wallflower on the shelf, standing by herself

Now she got the nerve to take a chance, so let the little girl dance

Let the little girl through, she wants to pass by you

Buddy, cant you see she wants to dance with me (she wants to dance with me)



(Little wallflower on the shelf, standing by herself)

(Never had the nerve to take a chance)

Let the little girl dance (let the little girl dance)
