two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
There's an old saying that's been all around
I heard it before I could walk

Allemande left your corner, then dosado
Allemande left again, and weave the ring
I've got money, marbles, and chalk sweetheart
Swing and promenade her home
Cause my money won't spend, and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk won't write anymore


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads reverse flutter wheel, straight across you go
And add to sweep 1/4 more
Pass thru and then, swing thru with the outside two
Spin the top is what you will do
Right & left thru, square thru three hands you roam
Swing and promenade her home
Cause my money won't spend, and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk just won't write anymore


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
While you were near I was happy and gay
Your presence made me feel so proud

Allemande left your corner, then dosado
Allemande left again, and weave the ring
I've got money, marbles, and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I am poor
Cause my money won't spend, and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk won't write anymore


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Money, marbles, and chalk is alright
To misers who love only gold
But give me a chance, to save our romance
For I love you with all of my soul

Allemande and weave
I've got money, marbles, and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I am poor
Cause my money won't spend, and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk won't write anymore

And my chalk won't write anymore
