two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Basic

Circle left
*Well, we met with some gals in a tavern
* And oh what a beautiful dream

You walk around your corner
then see saw your own
You do a left allemande and then you weave
** Well, we had three or four, then we had several more
That's when we went off our beam
We're sick, sober and sorry
But, look at the fun we had


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*The jukebox so loudly was playing
*Each couple was having a ball


**Of all them gals, their sweethearts and pals
Bet we were the sickest of all


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 8, corner progression

Heads (Sides) promenade you go bout halfway
Now lead to the right and dosado
You Swing thru tonight now let the boys run right
Bend the line and do a right & left thru
Come on slide thru then square thru go 3 now
Swing a little corner girl and promenade
We're sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun we had


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Outside we were hailing a taxi
We got one this time without fail
It sported a star, we didn't go far
Was only three blocks to the jail

Allemande and weave
We're sick, sober and sorry
Broke disgusted and sad
We're sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun we had
