two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Allemande left, allemande thar, go right and left and make a star
Gents swing in and make a right hand star
Shoot that star, a full turn go, star thru with the corner Joe
Join hands and make a great big ring
Allemande left with your left hand, partner right a right & left grand
Meet that gal and promenade her home
Promenade to Louisiana, just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home


FIGURE    A1, corner progression

First and third a half sashay, box the gnat across the way
Half square thru, go right & left thru you do
Dive thru, dosado, all the way around you're gonna go
Square thru 3/4 round the town
Split that ring 'round one you do, in the middle a right & left thru
Turn that gal, cross trail and then you'll swing
Promenade to Louisiana, just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home


TAG

Promenade that lady home
Nevermore you're gonna roam, in them old cotton fields back home
