OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
*There's a ship rigged and ready in the harbor
Tomorrow for ole England she sails
Left allemande, dosado
Left allemande and weave the ring
**And I must be aboard that ship tomorrow
Swing your lady round, promenade
For you are beautiful, and I have loved you dearly
More dearly than the spoken word can tell
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 8, corner progression
Four ladies chain 3/4, heads promenade 3/4 round
Sides do the right & left thru, turn that girl
Pass thru, swing thru and then, boys run
Bend your line, square thru 3/4 round
Swing that corner, promenade
For you are beautiful, and I have loved you dearly
More dearly than the spoken word can tell
ALTERNATE LYRICS
(middle break)
*I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazin'
The taste of war I know so very well
**I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow
(closer)
*Though death and darkness gather all about me
And my ship be torn apart upon the sea
**Should I return safe home again to England
