Dance With Who Brung You

>
You got to dance with who brung you
Swing with who swung you
Don't be a fickle fool
If you came here with a gal
Who has 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
In the long run you'll have more fun
If you dance with who brung you to the bash

I had a friend in Texas
He really had some style
He sang that good old western swing
And drove them wild
Then a talent scout from Vegas said
"Boy, dress and sing this way"
And in one short year
He was broke and in L.A

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
In the long run you'll have more fun
If you dance with who brung you to the bash

You gotta be real careful what you wish for
Cause you just might get the whole darn thing
Be sure what you want
Is really something you can use
Or you might wind up half dead
Just singing the blues

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
In the long run you'll have more fun
If you dance with who brung you to the bash

Yeah, dance with who brung you to the bash
