Order:

Hello My Baby
Sittin' On Top Of the World, Baby Face
Waiting For The Robert E. Lee
Red Red Robin, I Want A Girl
Suwanee

OPENER

Sides face Grand Square
Hello my honey, hello my baby
Hello my ragtime gal
Send me a kiss by wire
Baby, my heart's on fire
Allemande and Weave
If you refuse me, I know you'll lose me
Then you'll be left alone
Oh baby, telephone
And tell me I'm your own

Break Lyrics

Watch them shufflin' along
See them shufflin' along
Go take your best gal, real pal
To down to the levee...
...
Hear that shufflin' throng
Hear that music and song
It's simply great, mate, waitin' on the levee
Waitin' for the Robert E. Lee

Closer Lyrics

Ah, Suwanee, how I love ya, how I love ya
My dear old Suwanee
I'd give the world to be...

Left Allemande the Corner girl and weave in D-I-X-I-Even though my
Mammy's waitin' for me, prayin' for me
Down by the Suwanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Suwanee shore

FIGURE

(Pre-cue) Heads Square Thru to 4...
*I'm sittin' on top of the world
Right-hand Star, full turn around
Heads Star Left around the ring
Right & Left Thru, you turn your girl...Touch 1/4
Walk & Dodge, Partner Trade, Reverse Flutterwheel
Take that girl, Promenade around that ring
**Because I'm sittin' on top of the world
Rollin' along, singin' a song

Other Figure Lyrics

  1. Baby face...you've got the cutest little
    ...
    I didn't need a shove, 'cause I just fell in love
    With your pretty baby...
  2. The red, red robin comes bob-bob-bobbin'...
    ...
    When the red, red robin comes bob-bobbin' along
  3. 'Cause I want a girl just like the girl...
    ...
    Oh, I want a girl just like the girl that married dear...
