I Won't Grow Up Mary Martin; others 1960 | (Riverboat 364) Mike Seastrom |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
I won't grow up (I won't grow up)
I don't want to go to school (I don't want to go to school)
Just to learn to be a parrot (Just to learn to be a parrot)
And recite a silly rule
Allemande and weave
If growing up means it would be
Dosado, then promenade with me
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me! Not I
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads (sides) star left, find your corner waiting there
Touch 1/4 when you meet her
Scoot back, scoot back again, there's no one sweeter
Girls run right, lines forward up and back
Touch 1/4 and then boy run right, the corner, swing
Swing the girl around and promenade that ring
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me!
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
I won't grow up (I won't grow up)
I don't want to wear a tie (I don't want to wear a tie)
And a serious expression (and a serious expression)
In the middle of July
Allemande and weave
And if it means I must prepare
Dosado and promenade from there
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me! Not I
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
I won't grow up (I won't grow up)
Not a penny will I pinch (not a penny will I pinch)
I will never grow a moustache (I will never grow a moustache)
Or a fraction of an inch
Allemande and weave
'Cause growing up is awfuller
Dosado, promenade with her
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me! Not I
TAG
Four ladies chain over and back
I'll never grow up, never grow up
Original cue sheet had "grand circle" (meaning Circle Left)
for the opener, middle break and closer,
as opposed to the call written by Jack Berg
