Old time, new time, Rhythm and rhyme
Dance!
Take a chance

Come on in
Everybody spin

Get on your pony
Do the twist

Flick of the wrist
Yankee Doodle
It's time to dance
Let the music move you
Take a chance

Dance!

I have 7 sisters, a dog and 2 cats (one has only 3 legs), A daughter, numerous "God-daughters", A son, and a few "God-sons". I am Extremely Biblical though I don't really follow organized religion.
