OPENER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Gents star right around the square
Allemande the corner, weave the hall
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
Promenade
All I'm taking is your time
So help me make it through the night
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads square thru and round you go
Dosado the corner go
Touch 1/4 then scoot back
Walk & dodge, partner trade, box the gnat
Go right & left thru
Two ladies chain, keep the girl and promenade
All I'm taking is your time
So help me make it through the night
FIGURE (ALTERNATE) (128 beats) Basic - SSD Week 2, no progression
4 ladies chain, half sashay and circle left
4 ladies roll away allemande left and weave the ring
Oh come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time
Help me make it through the night
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 4, corner progression
Sides face grand square
I don't care who's right or wrong
And I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
For tonight I need a friend
Sides star thru, California twirl
Swing the corner promenade
All I'm taking is your time
So help me make it through the night
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
Take the ribbons from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against my skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Left allemande and weave the ring
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
Promenade
All I'm taking is your time
So help me make it through the night
TAG
All I'm taking is your time
So help me make it through the night
