Walkin' the Dog

"Walkin' the Dog" is a song written by Shelton Brooks in 1916. Written for the Dancing Follies of 1916, its chorus is:

Get way back, and snap your fingers,

Get over Sally, one and all,

Grab your gal, and don't you linger

Do that slow-drag 'round the hall.

Do that step, the "Texas Tommy" drop,

Like you're sitting on a log,

Rise slow, that will show,

The dance called Walkin' the Dog.
