OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*Along about 1825
He left Tennessee very much alive
He never would have gotten through the Arkansas mud
If he hadn't been ridin'...

Allemande left and weave
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a hoss like the Tennessee stud


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*He looped right back across Arkansas
He whopped her brother, then he whopped her paw
He found the girl with the golden hair
And she was a ridin'...


*Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
A little hoss colt playin' round the door
He loved the girl with the golden hair
And the Tennessee stud...


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads (Sides) square thru four hands 'round you go
To the corner there, touch 1/4 you know
Scoot back and then those boys run right
Reverse that flutter wheel one time tonight
Pass the ocean here then recycle round
Swing that corner girl, promenade on down
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a hoss - like the Tennessee stud
