two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*Folks call me a maverick, guess I ain't too diplomatic
I've just never been the kind to go along

Do an allemande left your corner, do a dosado your own now
Allemande left the corner and you weave the ring
Sometimes you just can't be afraid to wear a different hat
Swing your lady, get once around, you're gonna promenade like that
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Sometimes you got to go against the grain


FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Head couples promenade get half around the ring
Walk into the middle and pass the ocean there, extend
Linear cycle now, get to rollin' around somehow
Then a right & left thru and turn the girl and then
You square thru and count 'em 3 to the corner swing
Take the girl and you promenade around the ring
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Sometimes you gotta go against the grain


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Four boys promenade, get a rollin' around the ring
Ya gonna come on back and swing that girl around now
Hey join hands circle left, get a rollin' around the ring
You do an allemande left with corner and you weave the ring
Sometimes you just can't be afraid to wear a different hat
Swing your lady, get once around, you're gonna promenade like that
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Sometimes you gotta go against the grain


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Well I've been accused of making my own rules
There's rebel blood a runnin' in my veins
