two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk
At our Christmas party
We were drinkin' champagne punch and homemade eggnog

Allemande left and weave
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
Swing and promenade with him
We didn't know what to think of him
Until he sang Feliz Navidad


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads (Sides) promenade go halfway round
Come in the middle square thru 4 hands round
Go all the way and do the right & left thru
Veer left, Ferris wheel
Centers square thru three hands go
Swing and promenade the corner you know
We didn't know what to think of him
Until he sang Noel


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Carve the turkey, turn the ballgame on
Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone

Left allemande and do a dosado
Left allemande and weave the ring you know
Hallelujah, everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Carve the turkey, turn the ballgame on
Mix Bloody Mary's cuz we all want one

Left allemande and do a dosado
Left allemande and weave the ring you know
Hallelujah, everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family
