3.Dance With Who Brung You

Lyricist:Ray Benson
Writer(s):Ray Benson

You got to dance with who brung you, swing with who swung you,
Don't be a fickle fool,You came here with a gal, who's always
been your
pal, don't leave her for the first unattached girl, it just
ain't cool
You got to dance with who brung you, swing with who swung you,
Life ain't no forty-yard dash, be in it for the long run,
'cause in the long run you'll have more fun, if you dance with
who brung
you to the bash

I had a friend from Texas, he really had some style, he sang
that good
old Western Swing and drove 'em wild
Then a talent scout from Vegas said 'Boy, play and sing this
way'
And in one short year he was broke and in L.A.

You gotta be real careful what you wish for, 'cause you just
might get
the whole darn thing, Be sure what you want is something you can
use-
Or you might wind up half dead, just singing the Blues
Chorus(and end with)
If you dance with who brung you to the bash
Dance with who brung you to the bash
