Tiger By The Tail
(MAC 2303) Brian Hotchkies
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Four ladies chain across and you turn that ladie fair
Chain the ladie back three quaters round now
Men, bunch the ladie back to back, boys promenade outside
(But only go half way)
Find the corner, do an allemnde left (full turn)
Meet partner, grand right and left, when you meet your partner promende her
I'm as lost as a leaf in a gale
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
FIGURE
One and three go right and left thru, you turn a little girl and then
Sides pass thru, seperate around one, make a line
Forward up and back, then pass thru
Tag the line, face into the middle and then
(Center four) Go right and left thru, turn e'm now, pass the ocean there
Everybody pass thru and the corner swing- promenade
I'm as lost as a leaf in a gale
And it looks like i've got a tiger in the tail
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
Four ladies chain straight across, turn that girl and then
Roll away, circel to the left my friend
(Do an) allemande left then allemnade thar, go forward two and star
Men back up and you're gonna move it round the land
Now slip the clutch, allemande left, grand right and left you go
When you meet that lady promenade her
I'm as lost as a leafin a gale
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
