Living Next Door To Alice
Smokie 1977
  (Hearties 3)   Thorsten Geppert
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Sally called when she got the word
She said, I suppose you've heard
About Alice

All four ladies chain you turn that girl around
Chain your lady back and promenade around and round
A big limousine rolled up
Into Alice's drive


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 8, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway round the ring
Walk in a right & left thru and turn you go
Square thru and count four hands around with Alice
Dosado one time around
Swing thru and the the boys will better trade
Swing the girl around and we all will promenade
*Cause for 24 years I've been living next door
To Alice


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*(2,4)A big limousine pulled slowly
Out of Alice's drive


*(3)And the big limousine
Disappeared


MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna go
I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't want to know
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door
To Alice
allemande left and weave
24 years just waiting for a chance
I guess she's got her reasons, but I need a second chance
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door
To Alice


TAG

Swing
No I'll never get used to
Not living next door to Alice
