Traveling Man Ricky Nelson 1960 | (Royal 817) Randy Dougherty |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
I'm a travelin' man, made a lot of stops
All over the world
In every little part I own the heart
Of at least one lovely girl
Circle left
I've got a Polynesian baby, over the sea
Swing and promenade home
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
FIGURE (twice for heads, twice for sides) Mainstream, corner progression
Heads (sides) lead right, circle to a line
Go forward 8 and come back
Star thru, pass thru, trade by
Square thru on the 3rd hand, eight chain 3
Swing your corner, promenade back home
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
I'm a travelin' man, made a lot of stops
All over the world
The men star right, roll it one time around
Left allemande and weave the ring
*I've got a pretty senorita, waitin' for me
Down in Ole Mexico
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*My pretty Polynesian baby, over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of Waikiki
And I held you oh so tight
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4, corner progression
Sides face grand square
Oh, my sweet Fraulein down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
My China doll down in Ole Hong Kong
Waits for my return
The sides square thru, 4 hands around
Swing your corner, promenade
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
