written by Doug Crider, Verlon Thompson
The lights were hot and the beer was not
And the
band was playin' loud
The house was full
But her eyes pulled me right cross the
crowd
And I said how's a guy like me to get to know you
She said not so fast, let me show
you
CHORUS:
She said the first step is the two-step
I'm here to dance and nothing
more
Swing me round that hardwood floor
If you want to run with me, crawl before you
walk
The first step is the two-step then we'll talk
We sang along with every song
And
the room was spinnin' round
We danced in line, she felt so fine
And we hardly hit the
ground
So I said maybe we could make a reservation
For some wine with candlelight and
conversation
REPEAT CHORUS
First things first, let's two-step, then we'll talk
