I was waltzin' with my darlin' at the ball. Lost in the and her charms. I was glidin' around the dancefloor, she felt so in my arms. When a dark stranger walked up, and cut in. He said, excuse me sir, why don't you go a seat. I said well here pardner, this may sound kinda crude, But the is dancin' with me. Now I paid for the supper, an' I the drinks, So I feel I've got the right, Now I'm sorry ole buddy, but you better back off, Or there's liable to be here t'night. Now I can see that you're upset, 'cause it's always a tradition, To let a fine gentleman cut in, But if you don't take hands off my lady, pardner, I'm gonna have to break chin. Now, I've your kind before and I know, Exactly what's on mind. woman probably left you, for someone else, So you you'd just take a run at mine. Yeah, you though you'd be leavin' her on, right...it's all part of the game. Why you take my advice and on go back to the bar, In one piece, the same way you in. The took off and I saw him tryin' with someone else. An' my well, she scowled at me, An' she said, you know...I that was very uncouth, And goes against all the of chivilary. Then she smiled up at me, with those eyes, An' said, Mister, you know I kinda like style, But do you think we should call up the and check on the kids? I just and said, Naw...let's just dance a while...
