OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Circle left
*They call me Mr. Honky Tonk, the King of Western Swing
There's something in that music that I love to pick and sing
Walk around that corner, see saw round your own
Left allemande that corner and you weave around that ring
When I hear that steel guitar it makes me feel so proud
**Dosado your lady there and promenade around
From Tennessee to Texas when they hear me do my thing
They call me Mr. Honky Tonk, the King of Western Swing
FIGURE Plus, corner progression
Heads square thru and count me four around you go
Round that corner lady, well you do a dosado
Swing thru go two by two, the boy will trade and then
Girl fold, peel off and bend the line, go up to the middle and back
Square thru count me 3, find the corner, swing
Left allemande that corner then you promenade that ring
***From Tennessee to Texas when they hear me do my thing
They call me Mr. Honky Tonk, the King of Western Swing
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*You'll find me on the bandstand almost every night
Anywhere there's dance and swing and the flashin' neon lights
*They call me Mr. Honky Tonk, the King of Western Swing
They dosado to the Cotton Eyed Joe and even do the Buckin Wing
**Pretty girls a-dancin', just listen to that crowd
***When the band starts playing you can hear them fiddles sing
