two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Make her the cutest that I've ever seen
Give her two lips like roses in clover
And tell me that my lonely nights are over

4 ladies chain across
Chain 'em back and you promenade around then
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Sandman, I'm so alone
Ain't got nobody to call my own
Give her two lips like roses in clover
And tell me that my lonely nights are over


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 10, corner progression

Heads square thru, 4 hands around
To the corner lady now you dosado
Swing thru, boys you trade
Cast off 3/4, girl run right and then
Star thru, California twirl
Swing that corner lady, promenade 'round the world
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
