OPENER Basic - SSD Week 1
You circle left
It was about five 'til five on Friday
And we were all getting ready to go
And the boss man started screaming
And his veins began to show
Allemande left your corner, turn partner by the right and go
Allemande left your corner girl and weave around the ring
Some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'cause when the world doesn't make no sense
Swing and promenade and then
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
FIGURE Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression
Head 2 couples promenade about a halfway around you go
Walk right in and square thru, kick up your heels and go
All the way 'round to the outside two, you swing thru and then
Boys run right, couples circulate my friend
Half tag the line and then, scoot back across again
Swing and whirl the corner maid, take her hand and promenade
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
Well I was talking with my baby over a small glass of tea
When she asked a loaded question, she said, "How do you feel about me?"
Allemande left your corner, turn partner by the right and go
Allemande left your corner girl and weave around the ring
Some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'cause when the world doesn't make no sense
Swing and promenade and then
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
Some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'cause when the world doesn't make no sense
And you're feeling just a little too tense
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
Gotta loosen up those chains
Four ladies promenade one time around the ring
Get on home and you give him a swing
Swing and whirl the pretty little girl
Promenade her go 'round the world
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
TAG
Swing her boys!
Gotta loosen up those chains and dance
