OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk

Left allemande that corner, turn the partner by the right
Allemande the corner, weave the ring
**It's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
Swing that girl and promenade
That keeps you on the back roads by the rivers of my memory
Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I dip my cup of soup back from the gurglin', cracklin' cauldron
In some train yard


*Through cupped hands, 'round a tin cup, I pretend to hold you close

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) pass the ocean, turn thru
Make a left hand star
Heads (sides) back to the middle
Square thru three hands around
Slide thru, square thru 3/4 'round
Swing that girl
You're moving on the back roads by the rivers of my memory
Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Four boys promenade and travel one time around
Swing that girl
Join all of your hands, circle left in a ring
Allemande left and weave the ring
It's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
Swing that girl and promenade
That keeps you on the back roads by the rivers of my memory
Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind


TAG

Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind
Come on back and swing her, boys!
