This Old Riverboat    (GR 12143)   Johnny Davis

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER



*Join hands and circle left, that riverboat's a-waitin'
All aboard, it's time to go
Allemande left the corner girl, turn a right hand round your partner
Men star left around the town, star promenade that gal around
Girls step out and backtrack, same one a dosado and then you
Left allemande, then come home and promenade
You promenade her, it's up the river we go
Forward eight and back you go

ALTERNATE LYRICS



Join hands and circle, we're churnin' muddy water
Hold her steady as we go

Join hands and circle, we're sailing up the river



FIGURE



**Then four little ladies chain now, go straight across the river
Chain 'em back and watch 'em go
Put the ladies back to back, men go round the outside track
Get back home, dopaso, don't you hear the whistle blow
Corner box the gnat, then you dosado her, then you
Left allemande and come home, promenade
You promenade her, as up the river we go
I see that riverboat, so...

ALTERNATE LYRICS



**Four little ladies chain now, that paddle wheel's a-turnin'

**Four little ladies chain now, we're dancin' on the levy
