OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Join all of your hands start to circle
Walk around the corner see saw the one you know
Those men star right go once around tonight
Left allemande then weave the ol' ring
Oh! I know what it means to be lonesome
So swing your own then promenade
I love only you so darling please be true
Or you'll know what it means to be blue


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads square thru and get me 4 hands
And with the sides make a right hand star
Now the heads star by the left go once around and then
Dosado the corner girl go full around
Now square thru and count four hands around you go
To the corner swing and promenade
You promenade by twos, and I love only you
And I know what it means to be blue
