Bye Bye Blackbird
Eddie Cantor 1926
  (Old Timer 1301)   Larry Ingber
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER   

Allemande left, go allemande thar
Forward 2 and the gentlemen star
Bye, bye, blackbird
Shoot that star full around, slip the clutch, skip one girl
Left allemande and weave the ring
*No one here loves or understands me
Dosado and promenade go walkin' round the ring
Pull the shades, light the light
I'll be home late tonight, oh blackbird, bye, bye


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

4 little ladies chain 3/4 round the ring
Side 2 couples roll away 1/2 sashay
Head 2 couples a right & left thru
Turn the girl and then, you pass the ocean please
Scoot back, swing your girl around and then left allemande
Come back one a dosado and promenade the land
Well pull the shades, light the light
I'll be home late tonight, oh blackbird, bye, bye
