Merry Xmas Polka
Dinah Shore 1964
  (TNT 228)   Lou Taddia
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Come on and dance the Merry Christmas polka
Let everyone be happy and gay
It's the season to be jolly and deck the halls with holly
So let's have a jolly holiday

Four ladies promenade inside the ring
Swing at home and promenade
Dancing with your beau beneath the mistletoe
Merry Christmas everyone


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads go forward up and back
Square thru 4 hands and go
Dosado the corner then make a right hand star
Turn it, turn it once around
Girls u-turn back, left allemande, dosado at home
Swing the corner round and promenade
*Every heart will start to tingle when sleigh bells jingle
Merry Christmas everyone


TAG

Merry Christmas everyone

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Dancing with your beau, strutting round you go
This polka is for everyone


*Roll out the barrels and sing out the carols
Tis the season to be jolly so hang up the holly
