OPENER Mainstream
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 Mainstream, 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 Mainstream
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
