OPENER

Circle left
Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
Men star right go once around for me
Allemande left that corner, weave the ring
Oh, what a night
Swing your lady, promenade with me
What a very special time for me
Sweet surrender, what a night

FIGURE

Heads (sides) promenade 1/2 way 'round that ring
Walk in & square thru 4, go all the way
Do the right & left thru, eight chain 6 move it 'cross that floor
Oh, what a night (Musical interlude)
Swing that corner and promenade in time
I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and get her on home boys
(2,4) You circle left

MIDDLE BREAK

Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
Men star right go once around for me
Allemande left that corner, weave the ring
Oh, what a night
Swing your lady, promenade with me
You know I didn't even know her name
What a lady, what a night

CLOSER

Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
Men star right go once around for me
Allemande left that corner, weave the ring
Oh, what a night
Swing your lady, promenade with me
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me
What a lady, what a night

December 1963 (Oh, What A Night)

Lyrics ID: 768

Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
What a very special time for me
As I remember what a night!

Oh what a night,
You know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same
What a lady, what a night!

Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon

Oh what a night,
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me
She was everything I dreamed she'd be
Sweet surrender, what a night!

I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under

(Oh what a night!)

Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon

Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit

Oh what a night,
Why'd it take so long to see the light?
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right
What a lady, what a night!

I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under

(Oh what a night!)

I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
