"Hathaway Two-Step"

The Hathaway Two-Step is a song played in 4/4 time in A-Major with Standard tuning. It is a Cajun band staple and a line-dance favorite. People hit the floor to do the line dance called "The Freeze" when the band plays the "Hathaway Two-Step." Follow the link below for an excellent history of Cajun dance:
