Can anyone tell me the name of the dance that is done to a song that goes like this " put your little foot, put your little foot, put your little foot right here"? It is on the tip of my tongue but lost to my memory. Thanks

i wish i knew too.

How about the Varsoviana? It's pretty old, probably a precursor to the Waltz.
It works well for a fast waltz, midway
between American and Viennese waltz at 43mpm.

Hogy. Put your left foot in . Put your left foot out. Put your right foot in and shake it all about. You do the OKEY cokey and you turn around. Thats what its all about. Then they sing O, Okey Dokey Cokey, three times finishing with Thats what its all about. I'm not sure about the spelling. The Okey Dokey bit, they just do a few wiggles. It is just a party thing. I dont think I have heard it sung for the last 60 years or so. This one was nearly always followed by Knees up mother Brown. Under the table you must go , and so on.

Don . We were still dancing to it in the seventy's at New Years Eve.

Dave. I suspect that the Gonga is still being danced. Don't tell me the Lambeth Walk is still with us.

Don. I live in Canada,but it is possable that in England that they still dance those old time dances and perhaps in Australia as well? I'll dance to just about any kind of music,as my wife say's I'll drink to anything.

Dave. I just had a look at Victor Silvester's book. I remembered that he mentioned novelty dances. So I quote. The 1930's brought a series of Party dances. Lambeth Walk is mentioned along with Knees up Mother Brown and and Boomps-a-Daisy. Still to be seen and heard at the less sober end of the evening at innumerable parties and countless pubs. This is of course in the UK.
