Story Behind The Song

I don't do line dancing because my feet no longer do what they're told. I think it is great to watch but I prefer to dance up close and personal with just one other.

Song Description

I had so much fun writing this song as I deliberately set the lyrics to a line dancing rhythm and beat.

Lyrics

Line dancing ain't for me I know
Oh they've got the rhythm and that's some skill they show
They shuffle to the beat they kick and slap and glide
But I don't want to step from side to side - so you see
Line dancing ain't for me

Line dancing ain't for me for sure
It's got a lot of steps but none that I ain't seen before
They're doing what they're made to and doing it as one
And that don't look like my idea of fun - no siree
Line dancing ain't for me

I love that music
But it don't make me wanna stand in line
I just need to sway in my own simple way
Feeling somone's heart beat next to mine

Instrumental

Line dancing ain't for me it's true
It seems to make them happy and they sure know what to do
They turn their heads and lift their legs and clap when they are told
But following their rules just leaves me cold - set me free
Line dancing ain't for me

I love that music
But it don't make me wanna stand in line
I just need to sway in my own simple way
Feeling somone's heart beat next to mine

Line dancing ain't for me I say
There's something 'bout the way they move that makes me look away
They hook their thumbs into their belts and jump and stamp and twirl
But when I dance I like to hold a girl - it's gotta be
Line dancing ain't for me

Line dancing ain't for me

Line dancing ain't for me
