Alberta Bound Gordon Lightfoot 1972 | (Riverboat 1235) Steve Edlund |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
*Oh, the prairie lights are burnin' bright, the Chinook wind is movin' in
Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound
Men star by the right, go rollin' 'round the ring
Allemande the corner, weave the ring
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
Swing the girl, and promenade
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Oh, the skyline of Toronto is something you'll get onto
But they say you've got to live there for a while
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
No one-eyed man could e'er forget
The Rocky Mountain sunset
It's a pleasure just to be Alberta bound
I long to see my next of kin
To know what kind of shape they're in
Allemande left the corner, weave the ring
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
Swing the girl, and promenade
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression
Head (Side) couples promenade, you go halfway around the ring
Into the middle and do a full square thru now
All the way around and then, swing thru the outside two
Boy run right and ferris wheel
Centers square thru 3/4 'round
Swing that girl around and 'round and promenade
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
