This dance has been called the sappiest dance ever written. It's a flirting dance (they all are, but this one is particularly suited for it). It's for three couples (hence One, Two, Three in the song). The music is slower than most people think, hence the admonition to take things slowly in some of the stanzas.
Take hands all, double around the set Another double the same as that Single left and single right And turn around in place. Hands again, go the other way Another double the same as that Single right and single left And turn around in place. Chorus One into the center Two into the center Three into the center Then bows all around Take a double around the set Flirting with those inside the set Keep on going for a while Until the music changes Next time go round the other way Flirting with those inside the set Keep on going for a while Until the music changes One comes out from center Two comes out from center Three comes out from center Then bows, all around. Siding next on your partner's right Three slow steps to return to place Single left and single right And turn around in place. Siding next on your partner's left Three slow steps to return to place Single right and single left And turn around in place. Chorus Arming next on your partner's right No need to rush you've got all night Single left and single right And turn around in place. Arming next on your partner's left No need to rush you've got all night Single right and single left And turn around in place. Chorus
