Swing, Swang, Swung
He liked to swing, she swang, they swung
back and forth he rocked and did his thing
she climbed the ladder to slide along
they swung from ropes ala jungle king
swinging back and forth profiled and styled
going on the merry go round was next
grab the steel rings and look for a brass
reaching out from their horses they smiled
on painted ponies riding up and down
back at the playground some still swinging
but trying to go over the top kept bringing
those not high enough tumbling to the ground
it was then they began to swoong and swoong
which is when you swing in reverse too soon
Swinging on the Wane
(Sung to the tune of Singing in the Rain)
Swinging on the wane
our swingings on the wane
I think we’re going
to start sliding again
so sweetly we swung
and discreetly we swung
oh all the pleasure and
joys that it brung
delighted we swang
every night we could swang
and who could resist
all the joys that it brang
now we’re all laughing inside
swinging and playing on the slide
Holey Moley Love That Country Swing
(Sung to the tune of the C&W song, Roly Poly)
Holey moley love that country swing
totally gnarly love to dance that thing
on the front porch maybe out in back
in the barn or way up in the haystack
we’ll be dancing from winter into spring
we’ll be romancing as we do our thing
at the wedding and around the big dance hall
do-si-do ing going round and round the floor
hot and sweaty just hear that fiddler call
allemande our partners calling out for more
back to back and we’re twirling all around
until so exhausted we have to go sit down
holey moley love that country swing
holey moley love that country swing
