Circle left Pulled out the driveway past an old tar paper shack Left allemande that corner, come back you dosado Men star left, turn thru, left allemande Come back, swing the girl around and promenade It's gona be a long time Before I travel down this red dirt road again
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Heads square thru in the middle 4 hands around the ring you go, dosado Swing thru and then the boy run right Ferris wheel in the middle when you pass thru Right and left thru, roll a half sashay Swing the corner, promenade *It's gonna be a long time Before I travel down this red dirt road again
MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Circle left Louisiana red dirt highway I've been down a million times Men star right and turn it round now Allemande left and weave the ring I'm gonna take 'em to the city Where a man canswing and promenade I'm already pretty lonesome And my tires ain't even slung off all the clay
TAG
I'm already pretty lonesome And my tires ain't even slung off all the clay
