OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
*I used go down to the station
Just to watch the pullman train come rolling in

Swing your own
Men star left one time around now
Do a dosado once around and weave that ring you roam
**I used think my life was humdrum
But I finally learned my lesson

Dosado, and promenade some
***I'm going back to where I come from
Where the mockingbird is singing in the lilac bush


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I met a girl in Kansas City
She asked me if I'd like to step around


**But there were things she had to fix up
So she took my 14 dollars


***Now she's been gone since (Thursday) evening
And I have a hunch I'll never see that gal again


*When I grow up and have a grandson
I will tell him about those days


**There ain't no use in my pretending
The city ain't no place to


***Going back to where I come from
Where the mockingbird keeps singing in the lilac bush


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Four ladies chain and turn this lady
2 & 4 (1 & 3) will promenade and go 1/2 around
Heads (sides) square thru, it's full around now
Put centers in, cast off, go 3/4 round
Ends cross fold while centers square thru 3/4
Swing that corner gal and promenade her home from there
I'm going back to where I come from
Where the mockingbird is singing in the lilac bush
