This Old Riverboat New Christy Minstrels 1964 | (FTC 32040) Gary Brown |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Mainstream
Join hands and circle, *that river boat's a-waiting
All aboard it's time to go
Well you walk around the corner lady, see saw your own
Men star right go once around that ring
Allemande the corner, come back a right & left grand
Hand over hand go, meet your partner turn thru
Left allemande, come swing and promenade
You promenade her as up the river we go
ALTERNATE LYRICS
Join hands and circle, *we're churnin' muddy water
Hold her steady as we go
Join hands and circle, *we're sailing up the river
Easy now don't go aground
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Head pair you square thru, go walking around that river
Meet the sides and do the right & left thru
Do a dosado, go back to back, make an ocean wave and then
Those girls trade and the girls run
Tag the line, face to the right with a wheel & deal, come on around
And then you pass to the center and square thru 3/4 around
And then you swing that corner, gonna promenade that land
You promenade her **as up the river we go
ALTERNATE LYRICS
**I see that riverboat, so
TAG
Just bow to the partner, corner too
That's it, we're through
