OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
I've been alive forever
And I wrote the very first song

Allemande your corner, come on back a dosado
Men star left around you know
Turn the partner there by the right round, allemande left
Come back and promenade around
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade travel half way
Down the middle square thru go four
Go all the way and do a right & left thru
Slide thru and square thru four more
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
Trade by, swing and promenade the ring
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs
