OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK

Circle left
*You passed me by one summer day
Flashed those big, brown eyes my way
I knew I wanted you forever more
Men make a right hand star, one time around
Left allemande and then you weave the ring
(I said) Hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart) Goodbye heart
Dosado and promenade
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So, hello Mary Lou and goodbye heart

FIGURE

Head 2 couples square thru 4 hands
Swing thru the outside two and then
Boys run to the right and now
Couples circulate somehow, chain down the line and turn the girl
Star thru and pass thru
Trade by and when you do, swing that corner girl and promenade
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So, hello Mary Lou and goodbye heart

CLOSER

Well the 4 little ladies gonna promenade
Get one time 'round the ring and then
Get back home and swing your man around
Gonna join up all your hands and then
Circle to the left go 'round my friend
Allemande left that corner gonna weave that ring
(I said) Hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart) Goodbye heart
Dosado and then you promenade
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So, hello Mary Lou and goodbye heart

TAG

So, hello Mary Lou and goodbye heart

*I saw your lips, I heard your voice
Believe me, I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away

Hello Mary Lou

Lyrics ID: 281

Hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart

Passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And I wanted you forever more
Now I'm not one that gets around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And know I never did meet you before

I said hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart

I saw your lips I heard your voice
Believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
Arms around you good and tight
That's all I had to see for me to stay

Hey hey hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Yes hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
