OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
I spent last night in the arms of a girl from Louisiana
Out on the highway, my thoughts are still with her

Allemande with the corner girl, come a dosado your own
Left allemande that corner weave around the ring Calling Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)
Swing and whirl with the pretty little thing, promenade you go round I sing
Operator get me on through, gotta send my love to Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head two you promenade go half around that ring
Side couples square thru four hands around I sing
Go all the way and a right & left thru, you turn that girl
Eight chain six across the floor you're gonna whirl
Calling Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)
Swing and whirl that corner girl, promenade you go round the world
Hurry up put her on the line, gotta talk to the girl one more time
(Instrumental solo)

FIGURE (ALTERNATE)    Plus, corner progression

Head two you promenade go half around that ring
Side couples do the right & left thru, turn I sing
Side two you touch 1/4 then the boys run right
Relay your deucey and you roll it round tonight
Calling Baton Rouge
Swing and whirl that corner girl, promenade you go round the world
Operator get me on thru, gotta send my love to Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
A replay of last night's events roll through my mind
Except a scene or two erased by sweet red wine

Allemande with the corner girl, come a dosado your own
Left allemande that corner weave around the ring
Calling Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)
Operator get me on through, gotta send my love to Baton Rouge
Hurry up put her on the line, gotta talk to the girl one more time

(Instrumental solo)

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine
It won't be long until I'm with you all the time

Allemande with the corner girl, come a dosado your own
Left allemande that corner weave around the ring
Calling Baton Rouge
(Instrumental solo)
Operator get me on through, gotta send my love to Baton Rouge
Hurry up put her on the line, gotta talk to the girl one more time

(Instrumental solo)
