OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*Tonight I board the Delta Queen bound for New Orleans
And again I'll get the feeling that I'm free

Allemande your corner girl, dosado her
Left allemande, gonna weave the ring
Cause I'm a ramblin showboat gambler
Dosado and you promenade
Cause I'm a ramblin showboat gambler
Big money will always be my home


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I know every river ship
I've taken every trip and I know every Captain by his name


*Tonight I'm sitting here beneath the chandelier
With a lady here to light my big cigar


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru four hands around you do
Dosado around the corner girl
Pass thru, chase right, once around tonight
Boys run and do the right & left thru
Dive thru, square thru 3/4 round
Swing the corner, promenade
Cause I'm a ramblin showboat gambler
Big money will always be my dream
