Subject: RE: DTStudy: Step It Out Nancy

cantaria.org estimates that Sean McCarthy wrote "Step It Out Mary" in 1955. Cantaria says "Step It Out Mary" is based on a children's skipping-song:

Step it out Mary, my fine daughter

Step it out Mary, if you can

Step it out Mary, my fine daughter

Cock your legs for the country man.
