With many thanks to Swingerchaz's thread for making me dig through Dolly Parton numbers.
I found this little gem that had lain dormant in my pea-brain for years and resurrected it.

I was taken to a club by a girl friend who was interested in it, she didn't take to it but I soon got into the swing of things.
I met a lovely man at the club who gave me lots of lessons ....and now I'm a fully-fledged swingle too.  |

couldnt resist posting the lyrics just soo apt !!
You were not content with me when I was like I used to be
I was too old-fashioned, too simple and too plain
And so you took this country girl, taught me all about the world
Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing
I used to never drink or smoke, I'd even blush at dirty jokes
I never wanted to take part in all those worldly games
But you dressed me up in sexy clothes, took me where the swingers go
Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing
But you don't want me swingin' now, but you're the one that taught me how
It was you that wanted me to change
I'm only what you made of me, your mistake was changin' me
Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing
You want me like I was before but I'm not like that anymore
This plain, old, simple, country girl won't ever be the same
So don't expect me to go back 'cause it's a bit too late for that
And you're the one that taught me how to swing
But you don't want me swingin' now, but you're the one that taught me how
It was you that wanted me to change
And I'm only what you made of me, your mistake was changin' me
And you're the one that taught me how to swing
Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing, taught me how to swing |

"SHes obviously a game girl is Dolly ???...the recording i found on you tube was made in 1974 ......."
I had a vague recollection of that song from my youth ( 
A dear old Italian neighbour of mine loved Dolly Parton, she used to play her records and we'd dance to them, wonder if she knew how the words to that one could be interpreted? |

Well who'd have thought it, Dolly being enlightened!  |
