The Red Baron   (Chicago Country 40 )   Ken Bower, Jack Berg

OPENER



Sides face, grand square
After the turn of the century
In the clear blue skies over Germany
Came a roar and a thunder that man never heard
Like the screamin' sound of the big war birds

Circle left
Up in the sky, a man and his plane
Do an Allemande left, promenade your lane
Why eighty man died trying to end that spree
The bloody Red Baron from Germany

FIGURE (heads twice, sides twice)



Heads Promenade halfway round
Pass the ocean, Extend, Ladies trade
Swing thru, Boys run right, bend the line
Square thru five hands tonight
It's 10 - 20 - 30 - 40 - 50 or more
Meet your corner promenade the floor
Why eighty man died trying to end that spree
The bloody Red Baron from Germany


MIDDLE BREAK



Circle left
In the nick of time a hero arose
A funny lookin' dog with a big black nose
Allemande left your corner, turn partner right
Left allemande the corner and weave the town
He flew thru the skies in his secret plane
You swing that girl and promenade again
Why eighty man died trying to end that spree

The bloody Red Baron from Germany


CLOSE



Four ladies promenade
March on home and then
You swing old snoopy 'round my friend
Circle left, Left Allemande, weave the ring
It's 10 - 20 - 30 - 40 - 50 or more

Swing Snoopy and promenade the floor
Why eighty man died trying to end that spree
The bloody Red Baron from Germany


TAG

He challenged that Baron to a real dog fight
Snoopy fired once, The Baron went spinnin' out of sight
