Alabama Woman
Red Steagall 1970
  (Triangle 112)   Bill Ball
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    C4

Circle left
Left allemande with the corner, then do the daisy chain
Down the line, forward 2, back 1
*Makes me think of Birmingham
And wonder why I left that girl behind
, keep on goin'
**This Greyhound bus ain't fast enough
I wish the Lord would give me wings to fly

Dosado, promenade
I'm goin' home to Birmingham
With an Alabama woman on my mind


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*My meals have been consisting of
Assorted brands of California wine


**And lookin' back I can't believe
I let myself get in that state of mind


*I've counted every fencepost
From Dallas to that Oklahoma line


**The lights of Tulsa brighten up
That partly cloudy Oklahoma sky


FIGURE    A2, corner progression

Eight to the middle and back
4 girls lead flutter wheel, yes indeed, turn it around
1 & 3 go right & left thru
Heads go up and back, you slide thru
Pass thru and do the dosado full around
You pass thru, trade by, swing that corner, promenade, oh yeah
I'm goin' home to Birmingham
With an Alabama woman on my mind


FIGURE (ALTERNATE)    Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression

4 girls lead flutter wheel, yes indeed, turn it around
1 & 3 go right & left thru
Heads square thru count six hands around the ring you do
You pass thru, trade by, swing that corner, promenade, oh yeah
I'm goin' home to Birmingham
With an Alabama woman on my mind
