City Of New Orleans
Arlo Guthrie; Willie Nelson; others 1970
  (Wild West 1-05)   Kenn Reid
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 11

4 ladies promenade go once around the ring
Box the gnat then you're gonna swing
Join all your hands and circle to the left
Left allemande the corner, weave the set
Good Morning America, how are you?
Dosado and then you promenade
* I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) promenade go halfway 'round in time
Lead out right, circle four, break and make a line
Go forward and back, then star thru
Dosado make a wave, then swing thru
Boys trade, turn thru, swing the corner maid
Left allemande come back and promenade
* I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done
