OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSEr
Four ladies promenade on around the inside
Hey, get on back, swing and whirl your man
You've gotta join hands, circle left go moving round the ring
Allemande that corner, weave the ring
Oh, there's a tugboat, on down the river
Swing her and you promenade
Someone's sneaking round the corner
Could that someone be Mack The Knife?
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads square thru four hands around you do
Dosado around the corner girl
Hey, touch 1/4 then scoot back out here my friend
Boys run and do the right & left thru
Dixie style to a wave, boys cross fold
Swing the corner girl and promenade
The line forms on the right, babe
Now that Mackey's back in town
