two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*This train is bound for glory, this train
This train is bound for glory, this train

Four ladies chain across now
Turn a little girl and chain her back, turn her around, promenade
This train is bound for glory, this train
This train is bound for glory, this train


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*This train is bound for glory this train
Don't carry nothing but the righteous and the holy


*This train don't carry no gamblers
No midnight cooks or thieves or big shot ramblers


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression

The heads (sides) square thru, get me four hands around you know
Dosado, come on swing thru tonight and let the boy run right
The couples circulate, chain down the line
Star thru, pass thru and trade by
Swing the corner and promenade, oh my
This train, she's a midnight flyer, this train

Nelda Eaton does the female version.
