Put Your Little Foot Right Out is a simple piece based on just
two chords (tonic and dominant), probably of traditional origin, but best
known in jazz circles through Miles Davis's recording, then under the
title "Fran-Dance." Note Gene's subtle behind-the-beat tactics, the
perfect time and creative force of Ray's solo, and the agreeably
subdued ending.

LYRICS (as performed by Russ Morgan)
Put your little foot
Put your little foot
Put your little foot right out

Put your little foot
Put your little foot
Put your little foot right out

Put your arm around
Put your arm around
Put your arm around my waist

Keep your arm around
Keep your arm around
Keep your arm around my waist

Take a step to the side
Take a step to the rear
take a step to the side
but forever stay near

As we dance through the night
and the morning draws near
by the dawn's early light
all our cares disappear

Do a little whirl
Do a little whirl
Do a little whirl about

Do a little twirl
Do a little twirl
Do a little twirl about

Walk a little bit
Talk a little bit
Put you little foot right out

Sing a little bit
swing a little bit
Put your little foot right out

[BAND}

Take a step to the side
Take a step to the rear
take a step to the side
but forever stay near

As we dance through the night
and the morning draws near
by the dawn's early light
all our cares disappear

[BAND]

Walk a little bit
Talk a little bit
Put you little foot right out

Sing a little bit
swing a little bit
Put your little foot right out
