one column

OPENER - CLOSER    Mainstream

4 ladies promenade hit the road and go
Get home & swing your man around and go
Join hands and circle go movin' a while
Left allemande, weave it and go
Wind in and out around & when you meet this girl
Swing your girl and promenade this world
We'll do the square dance under kerosene lights
Put on your glad rags tonight


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head (side) couples promenade go 1/2 way round that ring
Walk in & square thru 4 hands I sing
4 hands & then swing thru with the outside two
Boys run, couples circulate and go
The ladies trade, bend the line, square thru go 3
Swing your corner and promenade for me
Never a square dance saw a prettier sight
Put on your glad rags tonight


MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Sides face grand square
(Musical interlude 32 beats)
4 ladies promenade one time around, get home & you swing
Swing your man & you promenade that old ring
We'll do the square dance under kerosene lights
Put on your glad rags tonight


TAG

My honey, put on your glad rags tonight
