OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumped good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones' Christmas joys

4 ladies promenade go one time around
Swing your lady, promenade on down now
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade go halfway around
Down the middle square thru 4 hands
4 hands around then a right & left thru
Veer to the left, then a ferris wheel
Centers square thru 3 hands around
Swing with Santa, promenade go around now
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes

4 ladies promenade go one time around
Swing your lady, promenade on down now
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill!
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that

Circle sing
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Left allemande and you promenade
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick
