two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    C4

Four ladies promenade go once around that ring
Get on home and box the gnat and give your man a swing
Left allemande, well you do a curlique
Boys run, left allemande, weave the ring
Weave it in and out until you meet your own
Turn thru, left allemande then promenade her home
You promenade on down, take this train
To swing on the square dance road

FIGURE    A1, corner progression

Head two couples square thru four hands around with you
With the sides right & left thru you do
Why don't you spin chain thru, go around that old world
Star thru, California twirl
Why don't you cross trail thru
Swing the corner lady round
Left allemande new corner, promenade
You promenade on down
Take this train
Swing on the square dance road

CLOSER    Basic

Four ladies chain 'em go across that old ring
Chain 'em right back home, give this girl a swing
Walk around your corner, see saw your own
Bow to your partners, corners all
Hold it right there, that's it, that's all
That's all, that's all

Contains a "blended" movement: Spin Chain Thru followed by Star Thru.
