Blanco Brown sings in the chorus:

“Gon’ and do the two step then cowboy boogie

Grab your sweetheart and spin out with ’em

Do the hoedown and get into it (Woooo Whoooo Whoooooouuu)

Take it to the left now and dip with it

Gon’ throw down take a sip with it

And lean back put your hips in it (Woooo Whoooo Whoooooouuu)

Let’s have some fun.”

When the second verse starts the girls move positions. The girls in the back move forward and the girls in the front go to the back. The transition goes as smoothly as rehearsed.

This way every girl has her time in the spotlight!

The chorus is not the only time Blanco sings dance instructions. Blanco Brown sings after the chorus:

“Slide to the left (Left), slide to the right (Right)

Now cool down, have a good time

Slide to the left (Left), slide to the right (Right)

Do the butterfly have a good time

Round, round, round and round you go

It’s time to show out right now and take to the floor”
