King Creole Elvis Presley 1958 | (Riverboat 312) Hunter Keller |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
There was a man of New Orleans and he could rock & roll
He's a guitar man with a great big soul
He lays down a beat like a ton of coal
He goes by the name...
Allemande left and weave the ring
Well, he's gone, gone, gone
He's jumping like a catfish on a pole
Swing that girl and promenade, you know
Well, he's gone, gone, gone
Well, he's hip shakin' King Creole
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression
Those heads (sides) promenade and take it half way around
Walk in and square thru, count 4 hands around
Go all the way and then, do a right & left thru
Pass thru, trade by, star thru and then
Square thru my friend, 3 hands around the ring
Swing that corner, promenade I sing
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Well, he's hip shakin' King Creole
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
When the king starts to do it, it's as good as done
He holds his guitar like a tommy gun
He starts to growl from way down in his throat
He bends a string and that's all she wrote
Four boys promenade the ring one time, you know
Swing that girl and promenade her home
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Well, he's hip shakin' King Creole
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
Well, he sings a song about a crawdad hole
He sings a song about a jelly roll
He sings a song about a pork and greens
He sings some blues about New Orleans
Four ladies promenade inside, one time around
Swing that girl, you all promenade
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Well, he's hip shakin' King Creole
TAG
Allemande left and swing your own
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Well, he's hip shakin' King Creole
