one column

OPENER    Mainstream

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, 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
