OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Circle left
*Well the judge found me guilty of wrong doin's
And he sentenced me to hang in mid-July
Walk all around that corner lady, see saw your own
Allemande left that corner, weave the ring
Well just send my body home on a freight train
Swing your girl around and you promenade
And see they bury me out by mama's apple tree
And send my body back to my hometown
ALTERNATE LYRICS
Nobody seems to care that I ain't guilty
I never did the things they said I'd done
*Oh, when it's time to go and meet my maker
I'm gonna try to do my very best
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
The head (side) two couples square thru go four hands
Meet that corner lady do a dosado
Swing thru tonight, all the boys you run right
Bend the line and do a right & left thru, and
Ladies lead dixie style make your wave, the girls circulate
Left allemande, you come on back and you promenade
And see they bury me out by mama's apple tree
And send my body back to my hometown
TAG
And see they bury me out by mama's apple tree
And send my body back to my hometown
