two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans

Allemande left and weave the ring
Bobbie thumbed a diesel down
Swing and promenade
Rode it all the way to New Orleans

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (Sides) promenade, halfway around
Down the middle and pass the ocean
Extend, ladies trade, recycle you know
Veer left and ferris wheel, pass thru, touch 1/4
Scoot back and then, swing and promenade
Good enough for me and my Bobbie McGee

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Well I pulled my harpoon outta my dirty red bandana
I was playing soft while Bobbie sang the blues

Allemande left and weave the ring
Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobbie's hand in mine
We sang every song that driver knew


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing, don't mean nothing if it ain't free

Allemande left and weave the ring
Feeling good was easy Lord, when she sang the blues
You know feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobbie McGee
