OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Mainstream
Circle left
Well I pulled out of Linden, Texas, two days and nights ago
Allemande left that corner girl, gonna dosado your own
Men star by the left hand, go once around that ring
Turn thru, allemande, weave around that ring
Just for you, sweet Melinda, my wife
The lonesome roar of this eighteen wheeler cuts through me like a knife
Dosado and then promenade her tonight
*Well I've been running on empty most all of my life
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
1 & 3 promenade halfway around the ring
Come down the middle, a right & left thru, turn the girl and then
You rollaway and star thru, make a right-hand star for me
Heads star left in the middle of the night, it's once around you see
Same two square thru 3 hands, trade by
Swing a little corner girl and promenade
Just for you sweet Melinda my wife
Well I've been running on empty most all my life
