Walking my Sugar  (SIO 3009)  Glenn Wilson  (Ella Fitzgerald) 1941

MAINSTREAM

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK

Circle Left

When my sugar walks down the street
All the little birdies go, Tweet, tweet, tweet

The Men Star Right, one time you go

Allemande Left, Weave the Ring
And in the evenin' when the sun goes down
Swing your lady, Promenade around

When my sugar walks down the street
The little birdies go, Tweet, tweet, tweet

FIGURE

Heads you Promenade Halfway and go

You Pass the Ocean and now Extend

Swing Thru, the Boys Run right
Bend the Line, a R & L Thru

Flutter Wheel and then Slide Thru
Swing
your lady, Promenade her too

When my sugar walks down the street
The little birdies go, Tweet, tweet, tweet

CLOSER

Circle Left

She's so affectionate and I'll say this
That when she kisses me, I sure stay kissed
Men Star Right, one time around you go

Allemande Left, Weave that Ring
And in the evenin' when the sun goes down

It's never dark when she's around

When my sugar walks down the street
All the birdies go, Tweet, tweet, tweet

TAG

Swing her there, All the birdies go, Tweet, tweet, tweet

ORIGINAL LYRICS

When my sugar walks down the street
All the little birdies go, "Tweak, tweak, tweak"
And in the evenin' when the sun goes down
It's never dark when he's around

 

He's so affectionate and I'll say this
That when he kisses me, I'll sure stay kissed
When my sugar walks down the street
The little birdies go, "Tweak, tweak, tweak"

 

When my sugar walks down the street
All the little birdies go, "Tweak, tweak, tweak"
And in the evenin' when the sun goes down
It's never dark when he's around

 

He's so affectionate and I'll say this
That when he kisses me, boy, I'll sure stay kissed
When my sugar walks down the street
When my sugar walks down the street

 

Everything is all green
When my sugar, walks down the street.
