two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 2

4 ladies chain, do a 1/2 sashay, circle left
4 ladies rollaway, circle left
Allemande left, and weave
Calico pie, little bird fly, down to the calico tree
Swing and promenade
*Wings of blue, singing tilly tilly loo, till away they flew
But he never came back, he never came back
He never came back to me


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Calico jam, The little fish swam, over the Syllabub sea
He took of his hat, to the sole and sprat, and to Willeby-Wat
But he never came back, he never came back, he never came back to me


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Heads square thru 4, dosado
Swing thru, acey deucey
Boys run, crossfire
Column circulate, boys run
Swing and promenade
Calico ban, the little mice ran, to be ready in time for tea
But he never came back, he never came back
He never came back to me


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

All 4 men promenade, once around that ring
Run on back and swing your girl around
Join hands, circle to the left
Allemande left and weave
Calico drum, the grasshopper comes, the butterfly, beetle, and bee
Swing and promenade
Over the ground, around and around, with a hop and a bound
But he never came back, he never came back
He never came back to me


TAG

Oh, he never came back, he never came back
He never came back to me
