OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
Once there was a tourist man who tried to dance
He tried to do the Hula, but he lost his pants
He didn't try to fight it; there was no use
When you're in Hawaii, (Allemande left and weave the ring)
Just "hang loose", just have fun
Swing and promenade, you're dancing in the sun
Don't try to fight it; there ain't no use
When you're in Hawaii you should just "hang loose"
FIGURE Basic, corner progression

Don't try to fight it; there ain't no use
When you're in Hawaii you should just "hang loose"
