Are You From Dixie
The Blue Sky Boys; many others 1915
  (Benz 1214)   Ben Baldwin, Jr.
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Head couple star thru, you right & left thru
Turn the girls, pass thru, swing this lady facing you
All circle left now, go round the ring now
Left allemande, walk by one, with the next you box the gnat
*The four little ladies promenade, go once around the ring
Box the gnat, promenade, take her home and sing
Are you from Dixie, I said from Dixie
Well I'm from Dixie, too


FIGURE   

Heads right & left thru, same ladies chain to the right
Two ladies chain, turn the girls, hold 'em tight
Sides right & left thru, four ladies chain thru**
Promenade this girl and don't you slow down
*Four little ladies whirl-away, star right go round the ring
Turn 'em left, roll promenade, take her home and sing
Are you from Dixie, I said from Dixie
Well I'm from Dixie, too


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Those Southern Belles just whirl, etc.

*Those Memphis Maids just whirl, etc.

*Those Dixie Darlings whirl-a-way, etc.

(**Note: Chain Thru. Ladies chain across, using standard chain; Men then star thru, not a courtesy turn, to end in Promenade Position.)
