two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Allemande left an allemande thar, forward two and make a star
Men back in you got a back-up star
Slip the clutch, skip your girl go left allemande
Partner right you go, right & left grand
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing
Swing that girl, promenade
Carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around
Down the middle pass the ocean then extend
Swing thru tonight, boys run to the right
Bend the line do a right & left thru
Pass the ocean now the boys cross fold
Swing your corner, promenade
Carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye


TAG

Carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye
