one column

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Just got home from Illinois lock the front door oh boy!
Got to sit down take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door

Four ladies chain
Four ladies chain back home, promenade (Doo doo doo)
Wond'rous apparition provided by magician
Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door


FIGURE (1 & 3)    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (Sides) promenade halfway
Sides (Heads) right & left thru
Square thru 4, dosado, eight chain 4
Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Swing your corner, promenade, (Doo doo doo)
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows
Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door


FIGURE (2 & 4)    Basic - SSD Week 11, corner progression

Heads square thru four hands around
Split two around one make a line of four
Box the gnat and then, right & left thru
Flutter wheel, sweep 1/4
Pass thru, U-turn back
Swing corner and promenade, (Doo doo doo)
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows
Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door


MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn

Allemande left your corner, turn partner right
Allemande left your corner, weave the ring
Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo doo doo
Wond'rous apparition provided by magician
Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
