OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*My woman told me last Friday night
Her birthday's comin' and things ain't right
We've been together since before the war
And I've never had her out on the dance hall floor
I didn't know what to say
I never learned to dance, only learned to play
And to watch other people gonna do their thing
My job was to pick and sing
Four ladies gonna chain the ring
You gonna turn that girl, get around you go
You gonna turn and chain those ladies right on back around you go
Gonna take that girl and you promenade get a walkin' around the ring I say
When you get back home and when you get there
FIGURE Mainstream - SSD Week 8, corner progression
Heads (Sides) you square thru get four now
'Round the corner dosado now
Swing thru and then the boy run to the right
Bend the line and a right & left thru
Flutter wheel across the dance floor
Slide thru, swing the corner and you promenade her
I need some help when I do the town
Help! I'm white and I can't get down
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Well, I moped around the house
I watched TV and slept on the couch
Flipped through the dial and after a while
A commercial came on that made me smile
Said learn to dance, learn to move
Call one-nine-hundred, you just can't lose
Well, it didn't take me long
I jumped right up and ran to the phone
*Well, I took the course and I learn quick
Just one leap, it did the trick
So when that magic evening came
I knew I wouldn't be ashamed
The floor was crowded, but something's wrong
I didn't recognize these songs
These cowboys ain't on my video tape
There must be some mistake
