OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Now the four ladies promenade go once inside that hall
Well get on back and swing be careful not to fall
Now you join up hands and circle to the left go around that ring
They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
You swing your partner and promenade
Cause I could never be a poor boy
If I could swing with a dolly like you


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Now the head two couples promenade halfway around you go
Walk down the middle and square thru 4 hands around you know
Four hands around and touch 1/4 now
Scoot back and then boys run to the right again
And now you slide thru, pass thru, trade by
Swing a little corner and promenade
Cause I could never be a poor boy
If I could swing with a dolly like you


TAG

If I could swing with a dolly like you

SEQUENCE (Opener, figure, heads twice, break, sides twice, closer, tag)
