Default Looking for a country music mother/ son dance

My mom has asked me to find her a good song to dance to with my brother. She wants it to be slow (easy for her to dance to).

She suggested george straight. I scaned his song list, but don't know if any of these are appropriate for a mother/ son dance. I only know his stuff from the 80s- early 90s. George Strait discography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So please help me find a country song that isn't about heartbreak (if one exists). Also, something kind of old school country. Like 80s george straight, kenny rogers, ronnie milsap...a steal guitar would be a bonus. And nothing that's really romantic like it should be a couple's dance.

TIA!

Well it's not older country, but we are doing our child/parent dance to "I Hope You Dance" by Leanne Womack. Both our moms love the song and since we are combining the groom/mother and bride/mother dance, we needed a song that wasn't specifically about sons or daughters.

Good luck!

My ex husband and his mom danced to "Through the Years" by Kenny Rogers.

Jay can't decide on a song yet...and we leave in 2 weeks!

My stepdad and I are dancing to "Then They Do" by Trace Adkins. I love Trace and this song is so cute, it makes me cry and its slow and easy to dance to.

Both "my wish" and "I hope you dance" are great choices, have an easy beat and if you want to take dance lessons could be danced either with a slightly modified Rumba or a Night Club Two Step.

There's a really pretty instrumental called "First and Last Waltz" by Nickel creek.
