Pancho And Lefty
Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson 1972
  (Cross Country 512)   Bob Wilcox
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Pancho was a bandit boy
His horse was fast as polished steel
He wore his gun outside his pants
For all the honest world to feel

Allemande and weave
Pancho met his match you know
Swing your girl and promenade you go
Nobody heard his dying word
But that's the way it goes


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway round
Sides pass the ocean, recycle now
Double pass thru, peel off
Star thru now, cloverleaf
Centers swing thru and now turn thru
Swing this girl and promenade you go
Nobody heard his dying word
But that's the way it goes


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Lefty he can't sing the blues
All night long like he used to
The dust that Pancho bit down south
Ended up in Lefty's mouth

Allemande and weave
The day they laid poor Pancho low
Swing your girl and promenade you go
Nobody heard his dying word
But that's the way it goes


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
The poet's tell how Pancho felt
And Lefty's living in a cheap hotel
The desert's quiet, and Cleveland's cold
And so the story ends we're told

Allemande and weave
Pancho needs your prayers, it's true
Swing your girl and promenade you go
Nobody heard his dying word
But that's the way it goes
