How I Love Them Old Songs (TNT 119) Gene Trimmer
- OPENER - CLOSER Basic
Circle left
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
They were a comfort to me when I was alone
Left allemande the corner, box the gnat at home
Four ladies promenade, once inside you roam
Turn partner by the right, full turn and then
Left allemande the corner and promenade again
Well, the dancin' is over and the music goes on
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
- FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Four ladies chain across, turn the girl you know
Heads pass thru and a partner trade you go
Square thru for me, four hands around you see
Then do a right & left thru, turn that pretty Sue
Swing thru 2 by 2 and now boys trade
Swing that pretty girl, we'll all promenade
Well, the dancin' is over and the music goes on
Doggone my soul
- MIDDLE BREAK Mainstream
Sides face grand square
Doggone my mind just won't leave me alone
It keeps remindin' me I'm so far from home
Them heart breakin', achin', eggs and bacon country songs
They take me back to hardwood floors, outdoor johns and mason jars
Four ladies promenade, once inside that set
Get home, swing your man and promenade that set
Well, the dancin' is over and the music goes on
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
