OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    A1

Allemande left that corner girl, your own you promenade
Promenade but don't slow down, the heads (sides) you wheel around
Right & left thru and turn your girl and then do a little dosado
Go all the way around, make an ocean wave, rock it to and fro
Trail on thru to a left allemande, a right & left grand you go
It's right and left go around that ring, when you meet you promeno
Where the northern lights are running wild in the land of the midnight sun
Alaska was a mighty land in the year of '91


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 11, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) do a half sashay, your opposite dosado
Go all the way around & box the gnat then do a right & left thru
You turn your girl and square thru, it's four hands 'round you go
Then swing that corner lady boy, swing her high and low
Allemande left with the corner girl, your own a right hand swing
Now allemande left just once again and promenade your Jane
*I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land
For one small band of gold to place on my sweet little Jenny's hand


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I'd buy for my Jenny a honeymoon home
Below that old white mountain just a little south-east of Nome


TAG

Now swing your honey, go 'round and around
In the land of the midnight sun
