a smiling folk song...


The Fine Fellow Dance

In a round about way, we've all come to play
in a place that is joyful and handy!
So what do you say? Will you join us, today?
If so, I will give you come candy!

The Fine Fellow Dance is all set to go
and you are invited; I'm sure that you know...
So come with your feet all happy and nice
and if you are sweet, I'll dance with you twice.

If you come frowning, I'll just shake my head
and dance with your brothers and cousins, instead.

Put on your best smile and stay for awhile,
for I'm sure you will have a great time.
There's fun by the mile! Come do it in style...
with melodies all set in rhyme!

The Fine Fellow Dance is all set to go
and you are invited; I'm sure that you know...
So come with your feet all happy and nice
and if you are sweet, I'll dance with you twice.

If you come frowning, I'll just shake my head
and dance with your brothers and cousins, instead.

So what do you say? Please come... make my day!
I'll dance you, romance you, and sweep you away!
