Blue Birds
  (Elite (new) 1014)   Mitchell Osawa
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Mainstream

Circle left
*Tonight I'm far from the Blue Ridge Mountains
Far from my home back in the hills

Left allemande, dosado her
4 men star by the left inside you go
Back home and turn thru, left allemande
Come on home, swing and promenade
Oh, I can hear the bluebirds calling
They're calling me back to my home


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade travel halfway
Sides square thru keep in time, 4 hands around
And a right & left thru there
You do an eight chain 6 across that floor
And the bluebirds singing in the Blue Ridge Mountains
Swing a little girl and promenade
Oh, I can hear the bluebirds calling
They're calling me back to my home


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Listen to the bluebirds sing
(instrumental)
Four boys promenade, get along boys
Swing and promenade
Oh, I can hear the bluebirds calling
They're calling me back to my home


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*There was a girl I loved so dearly
She lived away back in the hills

They're calling me back to my home
