two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
* Rainy day people
Always seem to know when it's time to call
Rainy day people don't talk; they just listen
Till they've heard it all

Allemande left and you weave the ring
**Rainy day lovers don't lie when they tell you
They've been down like you
Rainy day people don't mind if you're crying
A tear or two


ALTERNATE LYRICS

* If you get lonely
All you really need is that rainy day love
Rainy day people all know there's some sorrow
They can't rise above

Allemande left and you weave the ring
**Rainy day lovers don't love any other
That would not be kind
Rainy day people all know how it hangs
On their peace of mind


* Rainy day people
Always seem to know when you're feeling blue
High steppin' strutters who land in the gutter
Sometimes need one too

Allemande left and you weave the ring
**Take it or leave it or try to believe it
If you've been down too long
Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside
They just pass it on


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads promenade and you go bout halfway round the ring
Walk in, square thru
Four hands round and do the right & left thru
Pass thru, trade by, touch 1/4
You scoot back and then why don't you scoot back again
You swing that girl, promenade
Rainy day people don't mind if you're crying
A tear or two


TAG

Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside
They just pass it on
