two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Well Nashville had country music and Memphis had the soul
Hey, Lord the boy had rhythm that started rock and roll

Men star by the right gonna roll it on around the ring
Allemande that corner girl gonna weave around that ring
I was there when it happened
Swing a little girl and promenade her
Well, I was there when it happened, when Memphis
Gave birth to rock and roll


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 11, corner progression

Hey, those heads square thru in the middle and rock & roll it four
Dosado that corner go once around that floor
Swing thru in the middle of the night and then the boy run right
Ferris wheel move to the middle of the ring, centers pass thru
Slide thru, touch 1/4 then the girl you run
Swing that corner girl, promenade her, son
I was there when it happened, when Memphis
Gave birth to rock and roll
