The First Step Lyrics - Singles - Byrd Tracy

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
