OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
* Folks call me a maverick cause I ain't too diplomatic
I've just never been the kind to go along

Allemande that corner, dosado now
Allemande and then you weave the ring
** Sometimes you just can't be afraid to wear a different hat
You swing that lady round and promenade like that
***Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Sometimes you've got to go against the grain


ALTERNATE LYRICS

* Just avoiding confrontation for the sake of conformation
I'll admit I tend to sing a different song


** I ain't no hypocrite, what you see is what you get

* Well there's more folks than a few who share my point of view
They're worried if they're gonna sink or swim


*** I've got to dump that ball and chain
*** There must be rebel in my veins


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression

Heads couples promenade go halfway there with your maid
Come down the middle and square thru go four
Go all the way and then do the right & left thru my friend
Veer Left and then you ferris wheel
Center two do the right & left thru, you turn the girl
Veer to the left, veer to the right, you swing and promenade
*** Don't try and ride the easy train
Sometimes you've got to go against the grain
