OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*I can't sell my mama short on lovin' me
Guess that's why she let me go so far

Walk around the corner lady, see saw round your own
Men star right in the middle one time
Left allemande your corner,
Come back one and promenade the ring
**I turned out to be
The only hell my mama ever raised


FIGURE    C4, corner progression

Now head two couples promenade halfway
Lead out right and then go right & left thru
Dive thru, touch 1/4, walk & dodge my friend
Cross trail and swing that corner girl
Left allemande new corner,
Come back one and promenade that ring
**I turned out to be
The only hell my mama ever raised


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I said precious memories
Take me back to the good old days

**Then they locked away
The only hell my mama ever raised
