OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*In a little cabaret in south Texas border town
Sat a boy and his guitar and the people came from all around
And all the girls from there to Austin
Were slipping away from home and puttin jewelry in hawk
Four ladies chain, now turn that lady
Send her right back home, keep her, and all promenade
And he would play
FIGURE Mainstream, no progression
Heads lead right and circle to a line of four
Pass thru with a wheel and deal
Centers pass thru, dosado now
Swing thru, two by two, turn thru and go
Left allemande, walk by the next one
Swing the right hand lady round and all promenade
And he would play
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Well he couldn't ride or wrangle and he never cared to make a dime
But give him his guitar and he'd be happy all the time
And all the girls from nine to ninety
Were snapping fingers, tapping toes and begging him don't stop
*Then one day he was gone and no one ever saw him round
He'd vanished like the breeze, they forgot him in the little town
And all the girls still dream about him
And hung around the cabaret until the doors were locked
