OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
John Wesley Harding shot a man for snoring
Killed him in the bed right where he lay
Allemande left and weave the ring
He took a snort of whisky and went back to his sleeping
Rode out before they found him the next day
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 11, corner progression
The heads promenade go halfway
Come down and square thru 4
All the way around, right & left thru, rollaway
Box the gnat, square thru three hands, trade by
Swing and promenade now
*Rode out before they found him the next day
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*And to sum it up here is all that I want to say
FIGURE
Heads left square thru four hands
With the sides make a left hand star
Heads star right all the way around
Left swing thru
Girls cross run and the boys run
Wrong way promenade back home
*Rode out before they found him the next day
MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
Livin' in the west must have been the best
Must have been the greatest times of all
Allemande left and weave the ring
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
'Cause I never saw them sons of guns
In bar-rooms starting brawls
TAG
Sides face grand square
