A Man Named Armstrong
John Stewart; Reg Lindsay 1969

two columns
OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Black boy in Chicago
Playin' in the street
Not near enough to wear
Not near enough to eat (Allemande left and weave)
But don't you know he saw it
Swing and promenade
Saw a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Four ladies chain 3/4
Heads flutter wheel, sweep 1/4, pass thru
Swing thru, acey deucey
Turn thru, allemande left, promenade
Saw a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Young girl in Calcutta
Barely eight years old
Flys round the market place
See she don't get old (Allemande and weave)
Don't you know she heard it
Swing and promenade
Heard a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Rivers getting' dirty, wind is getting' bad
War and hate is killin' up the only earth we had (Allemande and weave)
But the world all stopped to watch
On a July afternoon
Watched a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

TAG

Watched a man named Armstrong, walk upon the moon
