two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
We didn't know the times were lean, around our house the grass was green
It didn't seem like things were all that bad

Walk all around that corner gal, seesaw round your own there pal
Allemande left, then weave around the ring
We were walking in high cotton, old times there are not forgotten
Swing your girl around and you promenade
We were walking in high cotton, old times there are not forgotten
Leaving home was the hardest thing we ever faced


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head two couples square thru, 4 hands around the ring you do
Meet the sides and make a right hand star
Heads star left inside you know round to your corner go
Dosado and then you make your wave
Swing thru & when you get through, boys trade and turn thru
Allemande left, then swing and promenade
We were walking in high cotton, old times there are not forgotten
Leaving home was the hardest thing we ever faced
