one column

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*Ridin' on the City of New Orleans
Illinois central Monday morning rail

Left allemande that corner, dosado now
Left allemande that corner weave that ring
Good mornin' America, how are you?
Swing and whirl that girl, promenade
I'm a train they call the city of New Orleans
And I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Here's where the heads square thru in the middle of the ring
You get four hands around I sing, dosado the corner round now
Swing thru tonight and then the boy run right
You ferris wheel you move into the middle and then
You pass thru touch a quarter, scoot back across
Swing your corner lady round and promenade
I'm a train they call the city of New Orleans
And I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Dealing cards with an old man in the club car
Playing penny a point ain't no one keeping score


*Well night time on the city of New Orleans
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
