Step

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dust on the cuffs and a nick in my boot The hall’s wide open and the band’s in a mood Mabel’s got the lemonade, Lou’s got the keys Everybody’s waiting on the count of three [Pre-Chorus] Heel to the left, now give it a turn Find you a partner, let the floorboards burn [Chorus] Step, clap, shuffle down the line Turn around and you’ll be doing fine Toe to the heel, now slide on through There’s room in this old dance for you Step, clap, shuffle, don’t be shy Swing your arms and let the hours fly When the fiddle calls, we fall in time Come on and shuffle down the line [Verse 2] Grandpa knows the steps from a Saturday past He still spins faster than the young folks can last Aunt June laughs loud when she misses a beat Then she finds it again with a tap of her feet [Pre-Chorus] Heel to the left, now give it a turn Find you a partner, let the floorboards burn [Chorus] Step, clap, shuffle down the line Turn around and you’ll be doing fine Toe to the heel, now slide on through There’s room in this old dance for you Step, clap, shuffle, don’t be shy Swing your arms and let the hours fly When the fiddle calls, we fall in time Come on and shuffle down the line [Bridge] If you came in tired, you won’t leave that way There’s a place for every pair of feet today Miss a step, just laugh and start again The next four counts will bring you back in [Final Chorus] Step, clap, shuffle down the line Turn around and you’ll be doing fine Toe to the heel, now slide on through There’s room in this old dance for you Step, clap, shuffle, don’t be shy Swing your arms and let the hours fly When the fiddle calls, we fall in time Come on and shuffle down the line [Outro] Step, clap, shuffle—one more time!
