OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*You were mine for just awhile
Now you're putting on the style

Men star right one time around
Allemande and weave
**You're the gossip of the town
But my heart can still be found
Where you tossed it on the ground
Pick me up on your way down


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Pick me up on your way down
When you're blue and all alone


**You may be their pride and joy
But they'll find another toy
And they'll take away your crown
Pick me up on your way down


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (Sides) square thru you know, round the corner dosado
Swing thru, and then the boys trade my friend
Spin the top let the boys move up
Recycle round, pass the ocean
Boys fold, girls U-turn back
Swing and promenade
As you tumble to the ground
Pick me up on your way down


FIGURE   

Heads (Sides) promenade halfway
Walk in and box the gnat
Side thru, circle to a line
Pass thru, wheel & deal, double pass thru
Everybody partner trade, centers pass thru
Swing and promenade
When you tumble to the ground
Pick me up on your way down


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 2

Four ladies chain across that old ring
Rollaway and you circle left you go
Four ladies rollaway
Left allemande and weave
When you learn these things are true
I'll be waiting here for you
When you tumble to the ground
Pick me up on your way down


TAG

As you tumble to the ground
Pick me up on your way down
