Back In Your Own Backyard
Al Jolson 1927
  (Blue Star 2533)   Mike Seastrom
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Four men star by the right and then one time around my friend
Turn partner left, swing in make an allemande thar
You back that star around the ring, keep on moving round I sing
Slip the clutch, left allemande and weave the ring
You can go to the East; you can go the West
Swing that girl and promenade
You'll find your happiness lies right under your eyes
You'll find it in your own backyard


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway, walk round there I say
Walk in pass the ocean, extend, girls trade
Swing thru you go, boy run right there you know
You bend the line and do the right & left thru
Square thru 3/4 but on the 3rd hand slide thru
Swing that corner girl and promenade
You'll see a castle in Spain through your windowpane
Back in your own backyard
