OPENER - CLOSER Basic: Allemande left your corner, dosado around your own
Join your hands, circle left, you can circle round the ring
Four ladies roll away, circle left I say
Four ladies roll away, circle left, you're on your way
Allemande left, allemande thar, right & left and make a star
The men back up you know
Shoot that old star, dosado around your own
Promenade this lady, round the ring you roam
Dancin' the sugar blues
FIGURE A1, R-H lady progression: Heads cross trail thru, round one you make a line
Forward eight to the middle, come back and pass thru
Bend that old line, go forward eight and back
Four ladies roll away, forward eight and back I say
Center four square thru, four hands around
Swing the one you meet
You allemande left, come back and dosado
Promenade this lady, round the ring you roam
Dancin' the sugar blues

Sugar Blues

Lyrics ID: 1745

Have you heard these blues that I'm going sing to you
When you hear them they will thrill you through and through
They're the sweetest blues you ever heard
Now listen and don't say a word

Sugar blues
Everybody's singing the sugar blues
The whole town's ringing
My loving man's sweet as he can be
But the doggone fool turned sour on me
I'm so unhappy, I feel so bad
I could lay me down and die
You can say what you choose, but I'm all confused
I've got the sweet, sweet sugar blues
More sugar
I've got the sweet, sweet sugar blues

I just love sweet food, puts me in a nice sweet mood
When I'm like that, you will never find me rude
I'm as sweet as can be, I was told
But now he says that I'm too old

Sugar blues
Everybody's singing the sugar blues
The whole town's ringing
I love my coffee, I love my tea
But the doggone cream turned sour on me
I'm so unhappy, I feel so bad
I could lay me down and die
You can say what you choose, but I'm all confused
I've got the sweet, sweet sugar blues
More sugar
I've got the sweet, sweet sugar blues

Composed by Clarence Williams.
Lyrics by Lucy Fletcher.
Recorded by The Clyde McCoy Orchestra; Ella Fitzgerald.
