San Antonio Stroll Tanya Tucker 1998 | (Wild West 1-27) Marv Lindner |
OPENER - CLOSER C4
8 to the center for a rainbow stroll
When I was a child, down in South Caroline
Soon as Saturday sun went on down
My folks and sister would go and leave me home all alone
Going to that big square dance
Left allemande and weave
Well my old radio would play that old opery show
So I never got lonesome or blue
Promenade
There ain't a thing in this world to make you fall in love, girl
Like a San Antonio Stroll
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Now the heads promenade halfway with your maid
Into the middle and square thru 4 hands around
All the way around and then a right & left thru my friend
Do an eight chain 6 across the town
And then the lights went down low, the fiddler picked up his bow
Swing that corner and you promenade her home
Now I'll sing it to you so we both can do
That old San Antonio Stroll
MIDDLE BREAK Basic
Circle left
When my folks would come home, they'd be hummin' a song
Mama would smile and say child don't you know
Allemande left to an allemande thar, go forward 2 and star
Going to that big square dance in town
Slip the clutch, pass one girl, left allemande the corner girl
Dosado and you'll promenade her home
