OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 11

Circle left
It's an awful surprise to open your eyes
And wake up in some old strange place

Left allemande, come home and box the gnat
Pull by left allemande, and weave the ring like that
Some senorita took a liking to me
Dosado and promenade you know
What'll I tell Virginia when I get home from Mexico?

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade just halfway you go
Side couples square thru 4 hands
All the way around, go right & left thru across that floor
Pass thru and trade by and do an eight chain 4
*I don't recall how I got here at all
Swing a new girl and promenade you know
What'll I tell Virginia when I get home from Mexico?

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I guess I could say I was kidnapped

*My eyes are all red, got an ache in my head

*Searching my mind for some last minute lines


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic

Walk all around your corner lady, see saw your own
Men center and make a right hand star
One time around and then, corner girl left allemande
Come back and bow, sides face grand square
But oh no, no, if I lie it'll show
She'll look in my eyes and she'll know
What'll I tell Virginia when I get home from Mexico?


CLOSER    Basic

Walk all around your corner lady, see saw your own
Men center and make a right hand star
One time around and then, corner girl left allemande
Come back and bow, sides face grand square
Searching my mind for some last minute lines
There's nothing worth saying I know
What'll I tell Virginia when I get home from Mexico?


TAG

Walk all around your corner lady, bow to your own
If I get home from Mexico
