OPENER - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*Gather round, ladies, gather round, hear the news that's comin' down
The ships are in and the sails are down, the boys are back in town
Take your skirts down off the rack, the boys are in, the boys are back
And no time now for takin slack, the boys are back in town
4 ladies (men) promenade, promenade inside that ring
Get back home swing that man, promenade on down
The boys are back in town, your true love can be found
Gather round the old playground, the boys are back in town
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*They've been gone for quite awhile, man it's good to see 'em smile
Now they're loaded up on style, the boys are back in town
Come on in get out of the cold, see 'em comin' down the road
We'll raise the roof 'cause don't you know, the boys are back in town
