I'm Growing Older But Not Up Jimmy Buffett 1981 | (Desert Gold 21) Betsy Gotta |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
*I rounded first, never thought of the worst
As I studied the shortstop's position
Men star right one time around
Left allemande and weave the ring
**I'm no Pete Rose
Swing your lady, promenade
***Though my mind is quite flexible
These brittle bones don't bend
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Sometimes I see me as an old manatee
Heading south as the waters grow colder
**That's how it goes
***This body's still flexible
But this barnacle brain don't bend
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads (Sides) promenade halfway around
Down the middle, pass the ocean, extend
Ladies trade, ladies run right
Tag the line all the way, face right
Ferris wheel, centers pass thru
Swing the corner, promenade
Though my mind is quite flexible
These brittle bones don't bend
ALTERNATE LYRICS
Let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die when I'm living than live while I'm dead
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Left allemande, grand right and left
Swing the partner, promenade
Sides face, grand square
I'm growing older, but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
Let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die when I'm living than live while I'm dead
TAG
The days get more complicated
The nightlife still wins
