Alabama Woman
Red Steagall 1970
  (Desert 16)   Bill Reynolds
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
This Grayhound bus ain't fast enough
I wish the Lord would give me wings to fly
Makes me think of Birmingham
And wonder why I left that girl behind

Left allemande and weave
The bright lights of Tulsa
Have brightened up that Oklahoma sky

Dosado and promenade
I'm going home to Birmingham
With that Alabama woman on my mind


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around you go
Walk right in and square thru 4
Four hands and then go right & left thru
Veer left, couples circulate, move up
Ladies do a scoot back
Boys fold and now
Swing the corner, promenade
I'm going home to Birmingham
With an Alabama woman on my mind


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Heads face grand square
My meals have been consisting of
Brands of California wine
And looking back I can't believe
I let myself get in this state of mind

Allemande and weave
Makes me think of Birmingham
And wonder why I left that girl behind

Dosado and promenade
I'm going back to Birmingham
With that Alabama woman on my mind


TAG

I'm going home to Birmingham
With that Alabama woman on my mind

Same as Desert 75.
