two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

You circle left to Texas, my gal we're gonna see
Now swing a corner lady, she knows no one but me
Left allemande new corner, right hand swing your own
Gents star left in the middle until you get back home
Dosado a Texas belle, once around will do
Left allemande the corner, pass by the gal you knew
Swing the next one waitin' there, take her home you see
She's the yellow rose of Texas and just the girl for me

FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 6, corner progression

1st and 3rd will promenade just halfway round the square
In the middle square thru count 4 hands right there
Right & left thru the outside two, turn and then dive thru
Dosado in the center once around will do
Pass thru, swing a corner, yes swing her there for me
Left allemande new corner, then promenade you see
*Now talk about a pretty girl, her name is Rosy Lee
The yellow rose of Texas and just the girl for me


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I dream about her golden hair, she's pretty as can be

TAG

So give a shout for Texas, just like me
Wa-a-a Hoo-o-o-o

March 1964.
