"Walkin' the Dog"
Cover, sheet music, 1916
Song

"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.[1]
