OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER   

All 4 ladies promenade once around you go
Turn your partner right a full turn, make a wrong way thar you know
Left hand in, men back up on down the line
Get ready now, throw in the clutch 3 times around
Now the race is on, we're going down the back stretch
My gal is running on the outside

When you meet do a dosado, promenade her home
I've got my gal, we're in the running, got to be moving on
Take a little walk around the ring now the race is on

FIGURE (twice for heads, twice for sides)    Basic - SSD Week 6, corner progression

Four ladies chain 3/4 round, turn the girl you know
1 & 3 half square thru, face the sides you go
Right & left thru, turn your girl, star thru and then
Rock up and back, square thru 4 hands and now
The race is on look for the corner, swing
Swing her and then, allemande left come on back and promenade again
I've got my gal, we're in the running, got to be moving on
Take a little walk around the ring now the race is on

TAG

When you get back home, swing her
Now the race is done
