two columns

OPENER    Basic

Circle left
Out in the west Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican girl

Walk around corner girl, seesaw your own now
Men star right, turn it one time you whirl
Left allemande, come back and you'll swing
Swing your girl around, promenade now
Promenade your lady back to El Paso
Take your Felina back home


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression

Heads (sides) you square thru, count it 4 hands around now
Meet with your corner girl, dosado around
Swing thru tonight, boys you run right now
Couples circulate, wheel & deal to face
Veer left, veer right
Trade by and swing
Swing this girl around, promenade now
Promenade your lady back to El Paso
Take your Felina back home


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic

Circle left
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden
I was in love but in vain I could tell

Walk around corner girl, seesaw your own now
Men star right, turn it one time you whirl
Left allemande, come back and you'll swing
Swing your girl around, promenade now
Promenade your lady back to El Paso
Take your Felina back home


CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden
My love is stronger than my fear of death

Walk around corner girl, seesaw your own now
Men star right, turn it one time you whirl
Left allemande, come back and you'll swing
Swing your girl around, promenade now
Promenade your lady back to El Paso
Take your Felina back home


TAG

Swing
Cradled by 2 loving arms that I'd die for
One little kiss and Felina goodbye
