Merle Haggard 1981

two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*There's a big brown cloud in the city and the country side's a sing
The price of life's too high to give up and it's got to come down again

Walk all around your corner girl and see saw your own
Left allemande, come back and weave the ring and go
Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon underneath the sky of blue
Dosado around your own and promenade her home
One of these days when the air clears up and the sun comes shining through
We'll all be drinkin' that free bubble up and eatin' that rainbow stew


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

1 & 3 square thru 4 hands around you go
Find the corner and dosado one time you go
Make a wave and the ladies trade, recycle, then veer left
And ferris wheel into the middle my friend
Pass thru and touch 1/4, scoot back I sing
Swing the corner lady and you promenade the ring
**When the world wide war is over and done and the dream of peace comes true
We'll all be drinkin' that free bubble up and eatin' that rainbow stew


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*When they find out how to burn water and the gasoline car is gone
When the airplanes fly without any fuel and the sunlight heats our home

**When the president goes to the White House door and does what he says he'll do
