Sam Rowan
Opener/Middle Break/Closer(wait 13 beats for opener)
Circle Left,
*Mary took to runnin' with a travelin' man
Left her Mama cryin' with her head in her hands
Such a sad case, so brokenhearted. Men Star Right, one time inside tonight,
Allemande Left, Weave the Ring. Ma I gotta go gotta get out of here,
You know I'm plum tired of hanging around, Swing the Cajun girl, Promenade go round the world!
Round and around, nobody knows, but the highway rolls on forever.
Alternate Lyrics
*Daughter, let me tell you bout the travelin' kind
Everywhere he's goin' such a very short time
He'll be long gone before you know it
*Down in the swampland anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
It's a real thing down in Louisiana
Figure
Heads/Sides Promenade Half Way Round, Down the Middle Square Thru Four Hands, Four Hands round there, Right
and Left Thru the outside pair, turn `em on around
Pass Thru, Trade By, Slide Thru,
Square Thru Three Hands gotta rock it on around the ring,
Swing and Promenade go walking round I sing!
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leavin' Louisiana in the broad daylight
Tag
Swing! That ole highway rolls on forever!
