Changing Partners

William Smith Monroe (September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) was an American musician who created the style of music known as bluegrass, which takes its name from his band, the "Blue Grass Boys," named for Monroe's home state of Kentucky. Monroe's performing career spanned 60 years as a singer, instrumentalist, composer and bandleader. He is often referred to as The Father of Bluegrass. more »

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

We were waltzing together to a dreamy melody
When they called out change partners, and you waltzed away from me
Now my arms feel so empty as I gaze upon the floor
And I'll keep on changing partners till I hold you once more

Though we danced for one moment and too soon we had to part
In that wonderful moment something happened to my heart
So I'll keep changing partners till you're in my arms and then
Oh, my darlin', I will never change partners again
