I visited, more than once, an assisted living home, here in CT, to talk to a prominent caller of "back in the day".He told of dancing as a teen.  So many young folks did then.  The call was "swing her in the center and kiss her if you dare".He stammered and turned red as she poked fun at his shyness.  They both ended up on the floor.  They became friends, not dates; but he did take her to the Senior Ball, filling in for her steady boyfriend, who for some reason, couldn't.  I still call - by a lady's request - Girl I Left Behind Me: "swing that girl, she's a cute little girl, swing that girl behind you - pass right thru, and balance too" - her favorite!   Then there's "push her away and watch her grin pull her right back and swing her again - push her away and watch her smile - pull her right in and swing her awhile."  It comes up. Singing calls are indigenous to the US.  And ubiquitous - back in the day of my shy caller.

Here is a link to a version of the full song, not within a square. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKRJuLHU3Qo My question is, is this song appropriate for the contra dance crowd with the tag line above?  (The tag line is the only line that is sung.) Any Thoughts?
