OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
I'm gonna throw my raincoat in the river
Gonna toss my umbrella in the sea
The sun's gonna shine like never before
Ain't gonna rain, gonna rain no more

4 ladies chain straight across and then
Chain 'em back and all promenade
Now my baby's comin' back to me

FIGURE (1)    Basic, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru four hands round you go
With the sides (heads), make a right hand star
Heads (sides) star left and turn it one time around
Pick up your corner, star promenade
Outside 4 backtrack
To the same one, swing and promenade
Now she'll be, back in my arms tonight

FIGURE (2)    Basic, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru four hands round you go
And with the sides (heads) make a right hand star
Heads (sides) star left halfway across the square
Make a right hand star, turn it and then
Heads (sides) star left halfway across, back to the corner
Swing the corner girl and all promenade
Now she'll be, back in my arms tonight

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Now the rain's been drippin', drip drop a drippin'
Every day you've been away
Now the rain is stoppin', no more drip drip droppin'
You're back to stay, that's why I say

4 ladies chain straight across the ring
Chain 'em back and all promenade
Now my baby's comin' back to me

TAG

Swing her there
Now my baby's comin' back to me
