Dance With Who Brung You

This is an Asleep at the Wheel number on their tribute to Bob

Wills album of about a year ago. The album won an award, if I remember

correctly.

Dance With Who Brung You--- by Asleep at the Wheel (a Western Swing)

Key of

4ths

(same as the melody of the Chorus)

Chorus

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

Verse 1

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.

(Chorus)

Instrumental Break (same as the and Chorus) then

verse 2

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
