Mountain Of Love Johnny Rivers; The Beach Boys 1960 | (Red Boot Star 1267) Ron Libby |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
Standing on the mountain looking down on the city
The way I feel it's a doggone pity
The teardrops are fallin' down the mountain side
High on the mountain of love
4 ladies chain, you turn and chain her back
Roll promenade on home
We used to be so happy when we were in love
High on the mountain of love
FIGURE C4, corner progression
Heads (sides) square thru 4 hands around the ring go
Curlique the corner girl, and all scoot back
Boys run right, do a right & left thru
Rollaway a 1/2 sashay, box the gnat
Square thru 3 hands, swing the corner promenade
*Many times I've been here and many times I've cried
High on the mountain of love
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
*I wish that I could take you where the sun does shine
*Inside the church there's an alter filled with flowers
*Waiting for the ringing that should be there for hours
MIDDLE BREAK (ALTERNATE) Mainstream
Circle left
Way down below there's a half a million people
Walkin' to the church with a big, tall steeple
Left allemande your corner, come back dosado
The men star left one time
Turn thru at home, your corner allemande
Come back and now you promenade home
That's why I'm so lonely, a ringing from above
High on the mountain of love
CLOSER (ALTERNATE) Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
Night after night I've been standing here alone
Weeping my heart out till the cold, grey dawn
Praying that you're lonely and you'll come here too
High on the mountain of love
Four ladies chain, you turn and chain her back
Roll promenade on home
Hoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of you
High on the mountain of love
