OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top

Boys star right and you turn it on around
Left allemande and weave around the ring
Oh well, I'm sad to say I'm on my way
I won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a pretty girl in Kingston Town


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads you'll promenade her halfway round that ring
Down the middle star thru, California twirl
Right & left thru you know
Veer left, ferris wheel around you go
Come on square thru three, that corner swing
Swing corner one and promenade the ring
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a pretty girl in Kingston Town
