two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Four ladies chain, gonna turn that girl
You chain the ladies back home
Join hands, circle left go round
Left allemande, weave the ring, go...
Dosado and promenade
Well straight as an arrow flies, we'll ride to paradise
My chickadee, my little Cherokee maiden and me


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads square thru four hands you go
And make a right hand star, turn it once
Heads star left one time will do
Meet your corner girl, star thru
Square thru 3 hands around and that corner swing
Swing corner girl, promenade
Well straight as an arrow flies, we'll ride to paradise
My chickadee, my little Cherokee maiden and me
