two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Mainstream

Circle left
Won't you come along with me, come along with me
To the Mississippi, to the Mississippi

Left allemande, you do a dosado
Men star left, turn it one time you go
Turn thru at home now, left allemande the corner
Swing and promenade her, promenade your lady
Promenade your lady to the land of dreams
Steaming down the river down to New Orleans


FIGURE    Mainstream, unknown progression

Heads pass thru, cloverleaf my friend
Double pass thru, all face in
Pass thru again, wheel & deal and then
Ladies lead dixie style, you make a wave, balance a while
Slip the clutch, left allemande that corner one
Swing your lady around, promenade her son
Promenade on down
You've got the Basin Street Blues

TAG

Walk around your corner, swing with your partner
You've got the Basin Street Blues
