Beatin My Time
Eddy Arnold 1951

two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER   

Allemande left corner, pass by the partner
Box the gnat, change hands turn 'em left full around
4 ladies chain, roll promenade 'em
You walk around the ring, don't slow down
1 & 3 wheel around, pass thru and star thru
Left allemande, promenade your own
Promenade her home
I hope you never tell me that
Somebody's been beatin' my time


FIGURE    C4, corner progression

1 & 3 lead to the right, circle 4 around
Make a line of 4, go forward 8 and back
Right & left thru, turn the girl
Then square thru 3/4 round, on to the next
Lady in the lead dixie chain, she goes left, he goes right
Swing the corner lady, left allemande
Weave home and swing now
*Remember this new girl
Stop at home and swing
'Cause somebody's been beatin' my time

ALTERNATE LYRICS
