You've Got A Friend In California
Merle Haggard 1986
  (Chinook 76)   Joe Saltel
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
* L.A traffic is bad this time of year
But there's a friend of yours in California
Sure wishes you were here

Allemande left and weave the ring
You've got a friend in California
Swing and promenade
You've got a friend in California
That sure misses you


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade and travel halfway
2 & 4 square thru in the middle of the ring now,
All the way and then right & left thru and you turn the girl
Then eight chain six across the ring now
And as you lay your head on your pillow tonight, just remember
Swing the corner, promenade
There's a friend in California
That sure misses you


ADDITIONAL LYRICS

* Fort Worth can be cold this time of the year
But this Southern California sun is warm, you should be here
