two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

4 ladies will star 3/4 round the ring now
Catch 'em left and roll promenade
1 and 3 wheel around, pass thru, u-turn back and
1/2 square thru, then a right & left grand you do
You're her guy, your stock is high
Dosado
She's your girl 'til the end
Take her home and don't you linger
Place a ring on her finger
Diamonds are a girl's best friend


FIGURE   

The heads (sides) pass thru, both turn left and go round one
Come thru the sides then right hand star
Corner left, don't be slow, partner right around you go
Corner left, left hand swing,
ladies chain across the ring
Turn and whirlaway, dosado the right hand girl
Your corner swing and whirl, promenade
*If you cater to her whims you'll end up buying gems
Diamonds are a girl's best friend


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Your smile may be grand but she's holding out her hand

*Square cut or pear shape, those rocks don't lose their shape

*It's then that those louses go home with their spouses
