Snoopy For President
The Royal Guardsmen 1968
  (Gold Rush 123)   Shawn Brown
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
The time had come in '68 to elect a President
And all the famous candidates thought they were heaven-sent
Waiting at the pumpkin patch, a dog sincere and brave
It's Snoopy now for president

Allemande and weave I say
Some wear the sign of the elephant and some wear the sign of the mule
Swing and promenade
But we'll hold the sign of the beagle high
And love will shine right through


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Head two couples promenade go halfway round the ring
Come down the middle with the right & left thru and turn that girl I sing
Now square thru and count about 4 hands around you go
Dosado with the corner and make a wave you know
Swing thru tonight, all the boys will trade
Swing that corner promenade you do
We'll hold the sign of the beagle high
And love will shine right through


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
New York State was lookin' bad till Snoopy made a speech
Soon Illinois and Tennessee were both within his reach
He won the vote in Oregon but time was growin' thin
And back at the convention hall...

Allemande and weave again

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Snoopy smiled his way into the hearts of everyone
But when the votes were counted up, they found he needed one
The winning vote for Snoopy came when the Baron raised his hand

Left allemande that corner girl and weave around the land

TAG

Swing your girl
Yes love will shine right through
