Swinging On A Star Bing Crosby with the Williams Brothers 1944 | (Sting 380) Paul Bristow |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK Mainstream
Circle left
Would you like to swing on star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
Left allemande and then dosado
The men star left one time and go
Would you like to swing on a star, turn thru
Left allemande and promenade far
And be better of than you are
* Or would you rather be a mule?
ALTERNATE LYRICS
* Or would you rather be a pig?
* Or would you rather be a fish?
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads square thru
**A mule is an animal with long funny ears
Touch 1/4, scoot back and then
Single hinge, girls trade and now swing thru
Boys run right, tag the line all the way face in
Pass the ocean, centers trade
Recycle, star thru and promenade
*** And by the way, if you hate to go to school,
You may grow up to be a mule
ALTERNATE LYRICS
** A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
*** But if you don't care a feather or a fig,
You may grow up to be a pig
** A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook
*** But then, if that sort of life is what you wish,
You may grow up to be a fish
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
Would you like to swing on star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better of than you are
Allemande left and weave
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Every day you'll meet quite a few, promenade
So you see, it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
TAG
Swing her there
You could be swinging on a star
