OPENER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
Martha Ellen Jenkins
How long have I chased the boys away from you
Left allemande that corner, turn partner by the right
The men star left one time around
Home you go, dosado, left allemande
Come back and swing and promenade
*Well, Martha Ellen Jenkins
I've loved you ever since the second grade
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Well, Martha Ellen Jenkins
How long have those boys been makin' eyes at you
*Well, Martha Ellen Jenkins
How long have I waited for this day to come
*Well, Martha Ellen Jenkins
Now I've chased the boys away for good
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Head (side) two you promenade halfway around that ring you're gonna go
Touch 1/4, walk & dodge
Swing thru and then, boys run right
You bend that line and do the right & left thru
Slide thru and square thru 3/4 around you're gonna go
Corner swing and promenade
Well, Martha Ellen Jenkins
I've loved you ever since the second grade
