two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Now join up hands and make a ring
Circle to the left like everything
Reverse trail along in single file
Girls step out and take a backtrack
Turn 'em by the right when you get back
Left allemande then weave the ring a while
Now pretty soon he began to see
How the Auctioneer talked rapidly

Dosado then promenade from here
He said "oh my, it's do or die,
I've got to learn that auction cry
Gotta make my mark and be an Auctioneer"


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Now 1 & 3 a half square thru then dosado that outside two
Go once around and make a right hand star
The heads star left inside the town, turn that star go once around
To the same old two and do the right & left thru
Now dive thru and pass thru and swing thru and then
Those boys trade and promenade that Jane
25 dollar bid now, 30 dollar, 30 who'll give me 30 make it 30
Will you give me 30, who'll make it a 30 dollar bid?


TAG

Yes. He sold a hog for 50 dollar bid
