two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
She had a home, a family, a man who loved her so
Who'd believe she'd leave to join a burlesque show

Allemande left the corner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande left again and weave the ring tonight
Say, has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose
Do a dosado and promenade her home
She's got rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Say has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around the ring
Down the middle and pass thru, separate I sing
Around two and make a line, go forward up and back
Star thru, California twirl and now dive thru
Pass thru and circle 4 exactly half around
Swing the corner lady and promenade around
She's got rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Say has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Here she is a dancing down in New Orleans
In this smoked filled honky-tonk they call the Land Of Dreams

Allemande left the corner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande left again and weave the ring tonight
Won't you come home, my sweet Mary Jo
Do a dosado and promenade her home
Here she comes a struttin' in her birthday clothes
Say has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
When some night the lights go dim and the crowd goes home
That's the time you'll wake up and find you're all alone

Allemande left the corner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande left again and weave the ring tonight
So take those rings from your fingers and bells from your toes
Do a dosado and promenade her home
Say goodbye to Gypsy, hello Mary Jo
Say has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose
