If You're Gonna Play In Texas
(LAM 10113) Bill Wents
OPENER
Circle Left
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
Walk around your corner, seasaw around your own
Left allemande and weave around the ring
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
Do sa do around your own and promenade the land
So rosin up your bow for faded love and let's dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
FIGURE
Heads promenade half way around the square
Come down the middle, touch a quater and walk and dodge from there
Swing thru boys run to the right bend the line
Move up and back, and do a right and left thru
Slide thru square thru three quaters, swing your corner promenade
So rosin up your bow for faded love and let's dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
MIDDLE BREAK
Grand Square
Four ladies promenade once inside the ring
Swing and promenade
So rosin up your bow for faded love and let's dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
CLOSER
Grand Square
So we dusted off our boots and put square ties on straight
The dancer raised the roof as Dwight opened up his case
You said you wanted to square dance, you wanted to dosado
So here's a fiddling song before we go
