Robin Hood Dick James; Frankie Laine; Gary Miller 1955 | (Sting 357) Paul Bristow |
Sides face grand square
*He called the greatest archers, to a tavern on the green
They vowed to help the people of the king
They handled all the trouble, on the English country scene
And still found plenty of time to sing
Circle left
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Allemande left and you come back one and promenade again
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin hood! Robin hood!
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*He came to Sherwood forest with a feather in his cap
A fighter never looking for a fight
His bow was always ready and he kept his arrows sharp
He used them to fight for what was right
*With Friar Tuck and Little John they had a roguish look
They did the deeds the others wouldn't dare
He captured all the money that the evil Sheriff took
And rescued a many Lady fair
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Now the head two couples promenade go halfway 'round the ring
Come down the middle and pass the ocean there, recycle
Pass thru and circle four just halfway
Veer to the left and the couples circulate, bend the line
Touch 1/4, single file circulate and then
Boys run right, swing the corner, promenade the ring
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood! Robin Hood!
TAG
Robin Hood
Swing
Robin Hood, Robin Hood
Hey let's bow to the partner, salute the corner
'cause that's it that's all!
