two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Walk around your corner, come back and then you swing
Join your hands and circle left around that big old ring
Allemande your corner, come back and dosado
Men star left in the middle of the ring - it's once around you go
Meet your girl and box the gnat - pull by, left allemande
*Dosado your pretty maid, go walking hand in hand
You promenade this lady and take her home tonight
Take her home and swing around
Beneath those city lights

FIGURE    C4, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) you promenade, go 1/2 way round that square
Come down the middle a right & left thru and turn that lady fair
**Step right up, make an ocean wave, rock it up and back you do
***Swing back and star thru, then swing your corner Sue
You're gonna swing that corner lady, and then left allemande
Dosado that pretty maid, go walking hand in hand
Promenade this lady, go walking round tonight
Take her home and swing around
Beneath those city lights

ALTERNATE CHOREOGRAPHY

* Grand right & left around the ring until you meet again

**Step to the middle do a dosado, all the way round you do

(***Note: to swing back and star thru, swing opposite
with right hand halfway round, then gents swing left hand full around
in the center and star thru with original opposite.)

Contains a "blended" movement: Swing Back followed by Star Thru.
