two columns

BREAK    Mainstream

Dosado your corner, then see saw your taw
Gents star right, it's once around you go
You turn your partner by the left
And then your corner right you know
Partner left do a double dopaso
One night when the moon was bright
We sang an old love song
And I took her for my own

Promenade and sing
Oh straight as an arrow flies, promenade to paradise
She's my little chick-a-dee, my little Cherokee maiden tonight


FIGURE    A1, no progression

Heads promenade go just halfway around
Lead to the right and circle to a line
Go forward up and back
Then you cross trail, Jack
Allemande left and weave around that ring
Go in and out around until you meet your maid
Then you do a little dosado
Take the corner, promenade
Oh straight as an arrow flies, promenade to paradise
She's my little chick-a-dee, my little Cherokee maiden tonight
