OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic: Four ladies promenade, go one time around
Back home and swing, swing your lady around
Then join hands, circle left go moving round the ring
Allemande Left that corner girl, weave the ring
Eight more miles to Louisville, it's coming into view
Swing your lady around and promenade her too
I knew some day that I'd come back, I knew it from the start
Eight more miles to Louisville, the hometown of my heart
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression: Heads (sides) square thru you go four hands around you know
Around your corner lady, do a dosado
Swing thru two by two and then boys run right
Ferris Wheel, those center two pass thru and go
Slide thru, square thru three hands round
Swing your corner girl and promenade on down
She's the kind that you can't find a-rambling through this land
I'm on my way this very day to win her heart and hand
TAG: Eight more miles to Louisville, the hometown of my heart

Eight More Miles To Louisville

Lyrics ID: 1505

I've traveled over this country wide seeking fortune fair
Up and down the two coast lines I've traveled everywhere
From Portland East to Portland West back along the line
I'm going now to the place that's best that old hometown of mine

Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view
Eight more miles on this old road and I'll never more be blue
I knew some day that I'd come back I knew it from the start
Eight more miles to Louisville the hometown of my heart

There's bound to be a gal somewhere that you like best of all
Mine lives down in Louisville she's long and she is tall
But she's the kind that you can't find a traveling through the land
I'm on my way this very day to win her heart and hand

Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view
Eight more miles on this old road and I'll never more be blue
I knew some day that I'd come back I knew it from the start
Eight more miles to Louisville the hometown of my heart

Now I can picture in my mind a place we'll call our home
A humble little hut for two we'll never want to roam
The place that's right for that love sight is in those bluegrass hills
Where gently flows the Ohio by a place called Louisville

Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view
Eight more miles on this old road and I'll never more be blue
I knew some day that I'd come back I knew it from the start
Eight more miles to Louisville the hometown of my heart

Lyrics by Louis Marshall "Grandpa" Jones.
