Old Man River (I've Come To Talk Again) | (Hi Hat 5062) Ernie Kinney |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
Old man river I've come to talk again
Men star right to the corner
Allemande, weave the ring
She's just like you
So you swing and promenade in time
And I think she's movin' me
Out of my mind
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Heads promenade go halfway
Down the middle, square thru 4
All the way around, go right & left thru
Veer left and ferris wheel once more
Square thru 3/4 round and swing the corner maid
Left allemande new corner, promenade
*Old man, I think I'm goin' where you're bound
MIDDLE BREAK (ALTERNATE) C4
Sides face, grand spin
Old man river, I've come to talk again
Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends
She's just like you, she's movin' all the time
And I think she's movin' me out of my mind
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Cool breeze on the river, ripples to the shore
Wash away my troubles to the sea forevermore
*Wind and willows whisper, sadness is the sound
Old man I might be going where you're bound
TAG
