If you’re not averse to squares… here’s one from Lloyd Shaw’s seminal work, _Cowboy
Dances_ (1939):
DON’T YOU TOUCH HER
First gent out around the opposite lady,
And don’t you touch her.
Now back around your own,
And don’t you touch her.
All four gents around the right hand ladies,
And don’t you touch ’em.
Now promenade those ladies fair,
But touch ’em? No sir, don’t you dare!
