INTRO

And it's away Dixie, steady as she goes
On your way down to the Gulf of Mexico


OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

All 4 ladies promenade you know
Get on home and swing with your beau
Join hands and circle to the left around and then
Left allemande, weave the ring
Wide Mississippi, roll along (roll along)
Swing and promenade on home
And it's away Dixie, steady as she goes
On your way down to the Gulf of Mexico


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

The heads promenade halfway in time
Lead to the right and circle to a line
Forward up and back,
Pass thru, wheel & deal
Centers pass thru and spin the top
Move up, single hinge, all 8 circulate
Girls turn back, swing and promenade
And it's away Dixie, steady as she goes
On your way down to the Gulf of Mexico
