OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Honor your partner, give her a swing
Sashay the corner on the left of the ring
See saw round your darlin' and bow real low
Go back swing the corner, get set to go
Allemande left and you pass this sweet
Swing with the next, she's the Belle of the fleet
Promenade home, go sailing on the levee
Swing 'em on the Robert E. Lee
FIGURE
Head couples balance and swing
Promenade just half of the ring
Right & left thru, then turn 'em around
4 ladies chain right across the town
Heads veer right, gents will hook on
(active couples go right, gents hook left, form weather vane)Spread the line as you travel along
Gals duck under, turn back when you're under
Go spinning on the Robert E. Lee
(Harlem Rossette figure)Ladies chain to your man
Circle 4 on the side of the land
Once and a half, sides break to a line
Forward and back while you keep in time
Pass thru, gents will face right, swing her
Swing the girl with all of your might
Promenade home, go sailing on the levee
Swinging on the Robert E. Lee
TAG
I don't mean maybe
Swinging on the Robert E. Lee
