Yet another songwriter-guitarist-singer. In that order. Though I earn my living mostly playing bass.
I play bass with various bands in many genres, and also perform at mainly acoustic-style venues as a solo songwriter-guitarist-singer (in that order)

Story behind the song
Just before Christmas I was in the acoustic room of the music shop in Anglia Square, Norwich, recently renamed Professional Music Technology (umm... PMT...) but universally referred to by my friends and me as "whatever-Carlsbro's-calling-itself-this-week"... I took down a £59 EastCoast guitar (their own make) from the wall and this tune came straight into my head and out through my fingers... Much easier to play than it sounds!
Lyrics
Honour Your Partners! Step left with style. Step right with grace. Do-si-do with your partner and back to your place. Clap twice to the left. Clap twice to the right. Swing round each other a glorious sight! link up right arms, circling so fine, same to the left now move down the line. Take one step back. Forward one pace. Turn on the spot and return face to face. (Whether this would actually work or not as a dance I don't know (and don't much care!) I'm not a dancer.)
