"I Can Tell by the Way You Dance (You're Gonna Love Me Tonight)" is a song written by Sandy Pinkard and Rob Strandlund, and originally recorded by Gary Morris on his 1982 self-titled album. The song was later recorded by American country music artist Vern Gosdin and released in March 1984 as the lead single from his album There is a Season. The song was Gosdin's eighteenth country hit and the first of three number ones on the country chart. The single spent one week at number one and a total of fourteen weeks on the country chart.[1]
