OPENER / BREAK / CLOSER

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...

Break 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

Closer Lyrics

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 Promeande
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
FIGURE (note: pre-cue Square Thru at end of preceding break or figure)
  1. You wore a tulip - a sweet yellow tulip -
    I wore a big red rose...
  2. Little Girl, you’re the one girl for me
    Little girl...
  3. Oh the shark babe, has teeth dear,
    And he shows them pearly white...
  4. There’s a shanty in the town, on a little plot of ground
    With the green grass growing all around...

Do Sa Do 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.

  1. Your lips were sweeter than julep - when you wore a tulip
    And I wore a big red rose
  2. Promenade home, the world will be so divine
    When you’re mine, little girl all mine
  3. Oh the line forms, on the right babe
    Now that Mack, is back in town
  4. 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!)
