Ain't Gonna Be Your Day Boxcar Willie 1986 | (Prairie 1093) Johnnie Scott |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*Well I woke up this morning, stumbled 'cross the floor
Feeling for the light switch, I stubbed my toe on the door
An earthquake came along, my house started to shake
A little voice whispered in my ear...
Circle to the left
It ain't gonna be your day, boy, it ain't gonna be your day
Allemande left, come back one, promenade I say
It ain't gonna be your day, boy, it ain't gonna be your day
As my house burned down, I heard a little sound
It ain't gonna be your day
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Head two couples promenade go halfway around the ring
Into the middle, square thru you get four hands I sing
Four hands around then, dosado one time
Touch 1/4, scoot back once and a half
Couples circulate, ferris wheel and then
Pass thru, swing the corner, promenade my friend
It ain't gonna be your day, boy, it ain't gonna be your day
As the house burned down, I heard a little sound
It ain't gonna be your day
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*When I shaved this morning, I nearly cut my throat
The zipper stuck on my pant, a button fell off my coat
Down in my kitchen, I set my house ablaze
A little voice whispered in my ear...
Circle to the left
*Well the day started rocky, it went from bad to worse
Like the words to this song, gets worse with every verse
When I die and go to heaven, I know on judgement day
St. Peter will say to me, it ain't gonna be your day
Circle left
TAG
As they turn me away, St. Peter will say
It ain't gonna be your day
