Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about We Danced. By Songfacts®.

Written by Paisley and his frequent collaborator Chris DuBois, this country love song is about a man and a woman who unexpectedly fall in love on the dance floor of a tavern. The outcome was also a surprise for its songwriters. Paisley explained: "We had no idea at first where we were going with this song. It started out with us focusing on a guy who owns a bar. And we began with the scenario that he's there working after the bar is closed, sweeping and putting the chairs up. Then this girl comes in who's forgotten her purse. We built the rest of the song around that concept. That's my favorite way of writing a song, because you never know where it's going. You're never pigeonholed by having to get from A to B, because you don't know what B is."

This was Paisley's second #1 single on the Country chart (the first was "He Didn't Have to Be").
