OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
I'll tell me ma, when I go home, the boys won't leave the girls alone
They pull my hair, they stole my comb, and that's alright till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty, she's the belle of Belfast City
She is courtin', one, two three, please won't you tell me who is she

Allemande and weave the ring
Albert Mooney says he loves her, all the boys are fighting for her
They knockin' at the door and they ringin' at the bell
Saying "Oh, my true-love are you well?"

Swing, promenade
Out she comes as white as snow, rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
Old Jenny Murphy says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Head two couples pass the ocean
Ping pong circulate one time
Extend, do slide thru now
Load the boat, love are you well?
Out she comes as white as snow
Rings on her fingers
, relay the deucey
Old Jenny Murphy says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
I'll tell me ma, when I go home, the boys won't leave the girls alone
They
scoot back knows stole my comb
Swing and promenade go home
She is handsome, she is pretty, she's the belle of Belfast city
She is courtin', one, two, three, please won't you tell me who is she?


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Head two ladies chain across turn the girl around you
Lead left, left dosado one time round the ring you go
Left swing thru and centers trade
Follow your neighbor back to wave
Relay the deucey, says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
Albert Mooney says he loves her, all the boys are fighting for her
They knockin' at the door and they ringin' at the bell

Swing and promenade
Love are you well?
Out she comes as white as snow, rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
Old Jenny Murphy says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
