Dancin' Daze - Dwm

I was movin' and a groovin'... At my high school dance Twist'n and a bump'n... Wear'n wholly pants The band had played some music... I was feelin' kind of stuck When I saw the kids a dancin'... To the disco duck I had to think of somethin'... Had to show off a little muscle So I boogied to the middle... And I twisted to the hustle In my cowboy boots... And my hair all curled and long I tied it in a pony-tail... As I danced to ev'ry song I really set the tone... When my heels had started click'n When they played some funky music And I did the funky chicken (The dances- Twist, Bump, Disco Duck, Boogie, Hustle, Funky Chicken) 3/9/2020 "Kim Rodrigues' DWM Contest

Sounds like you had a lot of fun and that everyone at the dance did also! How agile we once were, still we have our memories! A fun write to which I am sure many of us can relate! Blessings and hugs Jenny.

I survived the disco era. It was a million dollar experience I wouldn't pay a nickle to repeat. To this day I have no idea what the 'funky chicken' is? Have a great day my friend.
