OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*The old hometown looks the same
As I step down from the train

The men star right, one time around you go now
Left allemande, then you weave
**Down the lane I walk, and there runs Mary
Swing your own and all promenade
***It's good to touch
The green green grass of home


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*The old house is still standing
Though the paint is cracked and dry


**Down the land I walk with my sweet Mary

*Then I awake and look aroudn me
At these four gray walls that surround me


**For there's a guard and there's a sad old Padre
Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak


***And again, I'll touch
The green, green grass of home


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway
Lead to the right circle four, make a line
Touch 1/4, eight circulate
Boys run, a right & left thru there
Pass thru, trade by, touch 1/4, scoot back
Swing the girl and then all promenade
***It's good to touch
The green green grass of home


TAG

Sides face grand square
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In the shade of the old oak tree
As they lay me 'neath
The green, green grass of home
