OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Take me back down where cool water flows
Let me remember the things that I love

The men star right and you roll it around
Left allemande the corner and you weave it around
Stopping at the log where catfish bite
Walking along the river road at night
Pick up a flat rock
Skip it across Green River


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Well now the heads square thru and get 4 hands around
You make a right hand star
Heads star left and turn it one time
Right & left thru and roll her away
Touch 1/4, then scoot back and go
Swing that corner, promenade you know
Pick up a flat rock
Skip it across Green River


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
I can hear the bullfrogs calling me
Wonder if my ropes still hanging from the tree

The men star right and you roll it around
Left allemande the corner and you weave it around
Love to stick my feet down in shallow water
Shoo fly dragonfly, get back to your mother
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across Green River


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Well now the sides square thru and get 4 hands around
You make a right hand star
Sides star left and turn it one time
Right & left thru and roll her away
Touch 1/4, then scoot back and go
Swing that corner, promenade you know
Pick up a flat rock
Skip it across Green River


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Well up at Cody's camp I spent my days
With flat car riders and barefoot babes

The men star right and you roll it around
Left allemande the corner and you weave it around
Well 'Ol Cody Junior took me on over
Said you're gonna find the world is smolderin'
But if you get lost
Come on home to Green River

If you get lost, come on home to Green River
