one column

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Circle left
Me and this ole heart of mine really have a time
Allemande left your corner, weave on down the line
Well it keeps on a tellin me to find somebody there
Let's swing that girl...sides face grand square
The dumb thing it starts hurtin & makin me feel blue
The dumb thing starts cryin, I don't know what to do
The dumb thing it keeps tellin me to find somebody new
The dumb thing keeps reminding me of you


FIGURE    Mainstream, unknown progression

Well 1 & 3 (2 & 4) gonna promenade 1/2 around you go
2 & 4 (1 & 3) a right & left thru, turn the girl you know
Flutter wheel in the middle, sweep 1/4 more
Veer to the left, veer to the right, eight chain 4
*The dumb thing it starts hurtin and makin me feel blue
Swing, swing with the corner girl, then promenade you do
Well it keeps on a tellin me to find somebody new
It's sorry for all the trouble it put me through


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I went to a party and had a ball last night
Swing, swing with the corner lady, promenade and then
That feeling fell upon me just like the falling rain
Well you get on home

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Plus

Head ladies center, teacup chain
drum beat (32 beats)
Allemande left ole corner you're gonna weave around the land
Well when you meet with the pretty little girl
You promenade and then
You promenade your lady go walkin 2 by 2
The dumb thing keeps reminding me of you
