Along Came Jones The Coasters; Ray Stevens 1969 | (Rockin' M 2015) Bob Rollins |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
*I flopped down in my easy chair and I turned on Channel 2
Why a bad gunslinger called Salty Sam was chasin' poor sweet Sue
He trapped her in that abandoned mine and said with an evil grin
"If you don't give me the deed to the ranch", Ya better
Circle left
And then along came Jones - "He's my buddy" - Long thin Jones
Allemande left and promenade
Slow walking Jones - Slow talking Jones
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression
Head pair square thru count 4 hands around there son
Gonna dosado that corner lady one time, she's the one
Let's swing thru right here and now the boys run right
Do a ferris wheel come on around, centers right & left thru
Same pair square thru three hands, and the corner swing
Swing that lady and promenade
Slow walking Jones - Slow talking Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*The commercial came on, so I got up to get myself a snack
You should have seen what was going on by the time that I got back
You know down in that ole abandoned mine sweet Sue was havin' fits
Sam said "Give me the deed to the ranch"
*Well I got so bugged I turned it off and turned to another show
There was the same ole shoot-um-up boys and the same ole rodeo
You know salty Sam was trying to stuff sweet Sue in a burlap sack
Sam said "gimme the deed to the ranch"
