Old Time Medley | (Riverboat 1399) Tim Tyl |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left (note: pre-cue this at the end of 2nd and 4th figures)
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs
They were a comfort to me when I was alone
Men star right, Heart-breakin' achin' eggs and bacon country songs
Allemande left and weave the ring...With outdoor johns and mason jars
When you meet your partner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande the corner and promenade tonight
Well the dancin' is over, but the music plays on
Doggone my soul, how I love them old songs
ALTERNATE LYRICS (Merry Oldsmobile -- note changed figure)
*Won't you come with me, Lucille
In my merry Oldsmobile
...Down the lane on a Sunday drive
Boys keep going...
When he comes around, girls jump in behind him, get in the rumble seat
Careful, boys, you've got women backseat drivers, Girl give a left turn signal
Girls turn back left, left allemande
Come back and promenade
You can go, as far as you'd like with me
In my merry Oldsmobile
ALTERNATE LYRICS (Take Me Out To The Ball Game)
Take - me out to the ball - game
Take - me out to the crowd
Boys star right...Buy me some peanuts and some Cracker Jacks
Allemande left and weave...I may never get back
Oh, it's root, root, root for the home team
I hope they win...Swing and promenade
For it's one (whish) two (whish) three strikes, you're out
At the old ball game
(whish) = make sound effect - of ball whishing by the batter
(thunk) = make sound effect - of bat hitting ball
You wore a tulip - a sweet yellow tulip
I wore a big red rose
Little girl, you're the one girl for me
Little girl
Oh the shark babe, has teeth dear
And he shows them pearly white
There's a shanty in the town, on a little plot of ground
With the green grass growing all around
FIGURE (note: pre-cue Square Thru at end of preceding break or figure)
Heads (Sides) Square Thru
Dosado and make a wave
Girls trade, swing thru tonight
Boys run right, bend the line, boys reverse flutter
Pick up a girl bring her back, drop her off, and boys keep going back across
Pick up the other girl, keep her and promenade
Your lips were sweeter than julep - when you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose
Promenade home, the world will be so divine
When you're mine, little girl all mine
Oh the line forms, on the right babe
Now that Mack, is back in town
It's just a little shack, by the old railroad track
My shanty in old shanty town
TAG
When you're home, boys run the bases!
Hit that ball (thunk) -- and it's going, going, gone -- that one's over the wall!
Run The Bases - means boys promenade inside and pass the first base girl, pass the second base girl, pass the third base girl, and back to home and there's the catcher - so catch her and swing her!
