Things I Treasure Dorsey Burnette 1977 | (Blue Ribbon 265) Bill Donahue |
OPENER - CLOSER Basic
Circle left
*I'm going to find the things I treasure
Some that's old and some that's new
All 4 men star by the right now
Star promenade and take that gal along with you
All 4 ladies are going to roll back
Left allemande and weave the ring, promenade
I'll count my blessings one by one
When I turn and face the sun
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 7, corner progression
All 4 ladies chain the ring now
Head two couples square thru all the way
Meet the sides circle up 4 now
Head men break and make a line, go up and back with you
Pass thru and wheel & deal
Centers pass thru, swing the corner twice around, promenade along
I'll count my blessings one by one
As I turn and face the sun
FIGURE (ALTERNATE)
Head two couples promenade halfway
Side two couples go forward and back then roll away
Same two couples will star thru
Dosado to an ocean wave, then spin chain thru
Let me feel the earth below
Girls circulate, swing the corner, promenade
I'll count my blessings one by one
When I turn and face the sun
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
Turn me loose and let me fly
A woman's love, a taste of wine
Don't hold on to fence me in
If you do then goodbye friend
All 4 men star by the left now
Dosado, then promenade
Have the freedom of the north wind
Free to fly just like a bird up in the blue
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*I want to hover over the mountains
See the things the good Lord made
