Lord Have Mercy On A Country Boy Don Williams 1991 | (Tarheel 153) Donnie DeVore |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
*Well, I grew up wild and free
Walking these hills in my bare feet
The men star right turn it once and go
Left allemande, you gonna weave the ring
I live in the city, but I don't fit in
Swing your girl and promenade, I sing
I've got no home and I ain't got no choice
Lord, have mercy on a country boy
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*When I was young, I remember well
I'd hunt the wild turkey and the bobwhite quail
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
The heads (sides) square thru in the middle and get four hands and go
Find that corner lady, dosado
Swing thru and then, spin that old top
Boys move up and do the right & left thru, turn that girl
You square thru 3, to the corner lady swing
Swing that corner, promenade her home
I've got no home, I've got no choice
Lord, have mercy on a country boy
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
*They dammed the river and they dammed the stream
They cut down the cypress and the sweetgum trees
Now there's a laundromat and a barber shop
And the whole meadow is a parking lot
Four boys promenade, go one time around
Come back home, swing and promenade her home
I've got no money and I've got no choice
Lord, have mercy on a country boy
