INTRO
Ladies chain across and back
It's the song we sing
For what we're hoping to find
Promenade
Peace on earth for all time
It's the song we sing
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
*I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my hand
And keep it company
All four ladies gonna chain across, you turn her and then
Chain her back and promenade hand in hand
Come join us in our song of hope
For peace throughout the land
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow white turtle doves
*I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear the echoes through the hills
For peace throughout the land
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
The heads (sides) square thru go 4 hands and then
Meet the sides (heads) make a right hand star
Heads (sides) star left go once around the set
Same pair, go right & left thru
You swing thru and then, come on and swing thru again
You swing and promenade your girl
Life your voice and sing along
For peace throughout the world
