I Hear Kentucky Callin' Me
The Osborne Brothers; Chet Atkins 1974
  (Thunderbird 229)   Gabby Baker, Chuck Mashburn
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Mainstream

Sides face, grand square
I can hear Kentucky calling me
Whispering through my halls of memory

Circle left
The bluegrass fields, a maple hill
Left allemande, swing, promenade
I can hear Kentucky calling me

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads square thru 4 hands around you go
To the corner do a right & left thru
Dosado to an ocean wave, ladies trade
Recycle round you go, dive thru, zoom
Square thru 3 hands, that corner swing and promenade
I can hear Kentucky calling me

MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Sides face, grand square
Front porch dreamers pickin' old guitars
Boney hound dogs singing to the stars

Circle left
The sounds and scenes I've left behind
Left allemande, swing, promenade
I can hear Kentucky calling me

FIGURE (ALTERNATE)    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around you go
Down the middle and square thru 4 hands around
4 hands and then a right & left thru
Veer to the left and ferris wheel
Those centers square thru 3 hands around
Swing the corner, promenade the town
I can hear Kentucky calling me

TAG

Swing her
I can hear Kentucky calling me

This song dedicated to the 1983 National Square Dance Convention, Louisville, KY.
