OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

4 ladies chain you turn them with the left hand round
Chain those ladies right on back, turn the cutest girl
in town
Join hands and circle go walkin' round the land
Left allemande and weave around the land
You weave 'em in and out around just lookin' for your girl
Dosado around her and promenade the world
From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore
You take her home and swing her on the Wabash Cannonball

FIGURE (1)    Basic, corner progression

1 & 3 you promenade about halfway round
Down the middle do a right & left thru
Star thru, pass thru, then do a dosado
Right & left thru, turn your girl around and you can
Dive thru, pass thru, swing the corner there
Left allemande, come back and promenade
You promenade the ring back to old Peking
In dreamy Chinatown


FIGURE (2)    Basic, corner progression

1 & 3 you promenade about halfway there
Down the middle do a right & left thru
Star thru, pass thru, then do a dosado
Right & left thru, turn your girl around and you can
Dive thru, pass thru, swing the corner lady
Left allemande, come back and promenade
Well, I'm looking over a four-leaf clover
That I overlooked before


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

4 ladies chain straight across the ring
Turn them then you chain them back again
Join hands and circle go walkin round the land
Left allemande and right & left grand
Bye, bye, blues
Dosado around her and promenade her too
Don't cry, don't sigh
Bye, bye, blues


FIGURE (3)    Basic, corner progression

2 & 4 you promenade about halfway round
Down the middle do a right & left thru
Star thru, pass thru, then do a dosado
Right & left thru, turn your girl around and you can
Dive thru, pass thru, swing the corner there
Left allemande, come back and promenade
If they do the trick I'll hurry back and pick
Your best white orchid for her wedding gown


FIGURE (4)    Basic, corner progression

2 & 4 you promenade about halfway round
Down the middle do a right & left thru
Star thru, pass thru, then do a dosado
Right & left thru, turn your girl around and you can
Dive thru, pass thru, swing the corner there
Left allemande, come back and promenade
The line forms on the right girls
Now that Mackie's back in town


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 11, R-H lady progression

Join your hands, circle left go round
Allemande your corner, weave the town
Weave out and in, when you meet box the gnat
The girls star left, the men stand pat
Girls, it's home you go and do a dosado
Then allemande the corner, promenade your own
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I left a little girl in Kingston town
