[Intro – instrumental 6–8 sec] (button accordion riff + rubboard scrape + floor stomp) [Hook] Wooden floor Open door Squeeze-box talking Give us more [Verse 1] One small room One yellow light Scrape keeps the time Deep into the night Boots on the boards Dust in the air We dance the whole week Right out of here [Build] Stomp it, stomp it Keep the room warm Rain on the tin roof We ride out the storm [Hook] Wooden floor Open door Squeeze-box talking Give us more [Verse 2 – denser] Pot on the stove Coats on the bed Nobody's rich here Everybody's fed Old squeeze-box breathing In and out slow Then it hits the two-step And away we go [Last dance – stacked, doubled voices] Wooden floor / Open door Squeeze-box talking / Give us more Wooden floor / Open door We don't stop / We just dance more [Outro] (accordion phrase + scrape + room noise fading, no clean ending) [Adult male dance vocal, compact and unpolished, direct room-level projection, short conversational phrases, no melisma, no belting; sounds like calling a dance in a small crowded front room.]
