OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Dosado your corner, then go home and swing your own
Just swing a long...long...time
Allemande left the corner, and around the ring you go
Ya got a long...long...time
Right hand swing your gal, go twice around her
Walk around your corner when you've found her
Go back and promenade your dear and sweet talk in her ear
It's been a long...long...time
FIGURE
Number 1 you promenade, now 2 wheel in behind
And then it's 3...and...4
Back right out and join your hands and make a great big ring
4 ladies chain...chain...chain
1 & 3 you right & left across...the ring
The ladies star across and swing your man...again
*Promenade and now's your chance, to whisper of romance
It's been a long...long...time
