Too Busy Being In Love
  (Global Music 102)   Doug Bennett
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money

Men star right and turn it one time you know
Allemande left your corner and you weave the ring
I could have written a movie for Hepburn and Tracy
Swing that girl and promenade with your lady
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 6, corner progression

Head couples promenade halfway with your baby
Walk in, square thru 4 hands with your lady
Go all the way and do a right & left thru
Veer left and couples circulate by two
Chain down the line, square thru go 3
Swing your corner, promenade her for me
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money
The prettiest song and it starts with your name
I could have written my way into fortune and fame

Four ladies promenade one time you know
Back home, swing and promenade with your beau
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*If I'd taken the time to write down a few lines
Every time that you've crossed this heart of mine


**Could've written a powm that drives young lovers crazy
