OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs
They were a comfort when I was alone
The dancing stops, but the music goes on
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs

Allemande left with the corner then weave around the ring
Go in and out around then promenade I sing
It's all I can do to believe that they're gone
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Doggone my mind won't leave me alone
Keeps on reminding me that I'm far from home
But when I hear that Double Eagle guitar
It makes me think how trouble free, boy, we are


*Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs
They were a comfort when I was alone
That hard knockin', rock and rollin' life that I've known
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs


FIGURE    A1, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) lead to the right and circle to a line
Go into the middle and come on back, a dosado in time
Swing thru and when you do girls fold and then
Peel the top, go right & left thru my friend
Star thru and cross trail, the corner lady swing
Swing the corner lady, then promenade the ring
It's all I can do to believe that they're gone
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs
