two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Well, I won't be seeing Santa Claus
Somebody snitched on me

Men star right, roll it once around
Left allemande and weave the ring
*I broke my bat on Johnnie's head
Somebody snitched on me
So I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas now
'Cause Mommy and Daddy are mad


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I made Tommy eat a bug

*I climbed a tree and I tore my pants

*Spilled some ink on mommy's rug

*I tied a knot in Susie's hair

*I filled the sugar bowl with ants

*I hid a frog in sister's bed

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru, roll it four hands around
With the sides make a right hand star
Heads star left inside you go
Back to the corner girl, swing thru
Boys trade and turn thru, go left allemande
Come back one and you promenade
*Bought some gum with a penny slug
Somebody snitched on me
