AMANDA
(WLD 50) Mike Seastom
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK
Circle Left
* I've held it all inward, God knows that I've tried
But it's an awful awakening in a country boys life
Walk all around the corner lady, see saw your own
Left Allemande , and weave the ring you roam
** As I look in the mirror in total surprise
Do-Sa-Do and Promenade, I see age in my eyes
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
FIGURE
Four ladies chain 3/4 round the land
Turn the girl and Heads square thru four hands
All the way around when you meet the outside two
Do-sa-do it's full around and then swing thru
Girls circulate, boys trade, go right and left grand I sing
Hand over hand and meet a new girl promenade the ring
Amanda, Light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
CLOSER
Four ladies promenade, inside the land
Get back home and swing your own round and round again
Join up hands and circle to the left around you go
Left Allemande and weave the ring you know
Amanda, Light of my Life
Do-sa-do and Promenade tonight,
Amanda, Light of my life
I'm glad that you are my wife
TAG
Walk around the corner, Swing with your own
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
* It's a measure of peoples who don't understand
The pleasures of life in a Hill-Billy Band
** I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
