two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Allemande left alamo style, you balance there and then
Swing thru two by two and then you single hinge
Men star by the left go across, turn thru and then
Allemande left and weave the ring
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
Swing your darlin' round and promenade
We still fly Old Glory down at the court house
White lightnin's not the biggest thrill of all


FIGURE    C4, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru four hands
All the way to the corner you dosado
Curlique and then scoot back my friend
Boys run to the right, right & left thru, turn your girl
Pass the ocean go, scoot back please
Swing the corner lady, promenade
Football's still the roughest thing on campus
But the kids still respect the college Dean


FIGURE (ALTERNATE)   

Four ladies chain 3/4
1 & 3 (2 & 4) you promenade halfway
2 & 4 right & left thru, turn your girl
Pass the ocean, let the ladies trade and then you extend
All eight circulate, and then you swing thru
Swing the corner lady, promenade
Football's still the roughest thing on campus
But the kids still respect the college Dean


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Four little ladies hit the road, go walking talking round
Come on home and swing with your man
Join hands and circle, to the left go walking round
Allemande and weave the ring
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
Swing your darlin' round and promenade
We still fly Old Glory down at the court house
White lightnin's not the biggest thrill of all
