Singin' on the Mountain Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner 1974 | (Ocean 17) Grace Wheatley |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*Up the winding road, toward the top of the mountain
I hear singin' in the distance far away
And as my steps grow closer, I start recognizing voices
Voices that I haven't heard since my childhood days
Four ladies promenade, it's once around and go
Swing your man around and promenade
Oh there's singing on the mountain
Yes, there's singing on the mountain
Voices ringing out so loud and clear
FIGURE Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression
Heads promenade halfway around
In to the middle square thru count 4
All the way around, right & left thru, turn the girl
Pass thru, trade by, touch 1/4 there
Scoot back across, scoot back again
Swing that girl around and promenade
Oh there's singing on the mountain
Yes, there's singing on the mountain
Voices ringing out so loud and clear
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*I can hear my mama and my two older sisters
Singing "God revive us once again"
And I hear daddy's voice ringing out across the mountains singing
"Glory, hallelujah,...amen"
*I awake from my dreaming, they all have stopped their singing
Then I realize I'm far away
From where I spent my childhood with all that fancy singing
But in my dreams I hear them sing and pray
TAG
Oh there's singing on the mountain
Yes, there's singing on the mountain
Sounds like angel's voices that I hear
