OPENER / BREAK / CLOSER

Sides Face, Grand Square
Sing me . . . . Sing me an old fashioned song . . .
Bring me . . Back in my mind, to a time where my memories all come from

Four Ladies Promenade one time and go . . .
Swing your man and Promenade
A good old fashioned, hand clapping, knee slapping, foot tapping song

FIGURE 1 & 3 ("Shoo Fly")

Heads (Sides) Square Thru, shoo fly shoo, all the way around you do,
Meet the outside two, Star Thru . . .
Pass Thru, Tag the Line, Face In and then
Touch a Quarter, Boys Run,  Eight Chain 4
Shoo fly don’t bother me, shoo fly don’t bother me
Shoo fly don’t bother me

Swing number Five and Promenade
Flies in the buttermilk shoo fly shoo, flies in the butter milk shoo fly shoo
Flies in the buttermilk shoo fly shoo, skip to my loo my darlin’

FIGURE 2 & 4 ("Jimmy Crack Corn")

Heads (Sides) Square Thru, shoo fly shoo, all the way around you do,
Meet the outside two, Star Thru . . .
Pass Thru, Tag the Line, Face In and then
Touch a Quarter, Boys Run,  Eight Chain 4
When I was young I used to wait, on master and give him his plate
And pass the bottle when he got dry

Swing number Five and Promenade
Jimmy crack corn and I don’t care, Jimmy crack corn and I don’t care
Jimmy crack corn and I don’t care...
