two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Meanwhile down in Memphis
Drinking in a Beale Street bar
There's a fog rollin' off the Mississippi
Has anybody seen Arkansas?

Allemande and weave
And the deckhands from the toll boats
Come ashore wearin' Mexican shoes
They were headed straight for Graceland
It was the first thing they wanted to do


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade and go halfway
Sides do the right & left thru
Sides (Heads) square thru get me 4 hands
Dosado do an eight chain 4
Porkpie hats and sombreros
*And they all came to get 'em some Memphis

Swing the corner girl, promenade
Swinging pool cues at piƱatas
Don't that river smell sweet


ALTERNATE LYRICS

* Low riders lined up with limousines
And they all came to rock and roll


MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Mariachi singin' the blues
Soul sisters huggin' Senoritas
All sporting blue suede shoes

Allemande and weave
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Mariachi singin' the blues
Southern Belles and Senoritas
All sporting blue suede shoes


TAG

Circle left
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Mariachi singin' the blues
Soul sisters huggin' Senoritas
All sporting blue suede shoes
