OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Four ladies promenade go one time around
And get back home and swing your boy, everybody swing
All join hands, circle to the left go walking talking
Do an allemande left the corner girl, and weave the ring
I said rock, they call it rock 'n' roll baby here to stay
Swing your honey and promenade
I love to rock 'n' roll
I been a movin' and a groovin' and getting it both night and day
I like to boogie woogie baby, just rock 'n' roll my life away


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head (side) couples pass the ocean and girls trade, recycle
Everybody double pass thru and cloverleaf
Double pass thru one more time and
Leaders trade, dosado, do an eight chain four
I said rock, they call it rock 'n' roll baby here to stay
Swing your honey and promenade
I love to rock 'n' roll
I been a movin' and a groovin' and getting it both night and day
I like to boogie woogie baby, just rock 'n' roll my life away


MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
I got a gal called Nelly, she's really chili pepper hot
She knows how to reel it and knows how to rock
Come on baby, you know I like some long, I like some lean
I like the way that you shake that thing

Four boys promenade go one time around
And get back home and swing your girl and promenade
I been moving and grooving
And getting it both night and day
