OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*It comes from Mississippi and down in Alabam'
Creeping like a fever all across the land

Walk around your corner see saw your girl
Left allemande your corner, then you weave that ring
It's the Hillbilly Rock, beat it with a drum
Swing your girl around, promenade her back home
Keeping up the rhythm steady as a clock
Doing a little thing called the Hillbilly Rock


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Some say it came from Memphis down in Tennessee
Or it drifted in from Georgia 'bout 1953


*Way back in old Kentucky where the bluegrass grows
Through the Carolinas on them dirt red roads


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru 4 hands around you go
Round your corner lady do a dosado
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Tag the line and then cloverleaf tonight
Girls square thru and go 3 hands around
Swing your corner man and promenade the town
Keeping up the rhythm steady as a clock
Doing a little thing called the Hillbilly Rock
