In The Good Old Summertime
(As used on record)
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Allemande your corner, let's do the grand sashay
Dosado go all the way round, right hand pull 'em on by
See saw the next by the left, left hand pull 'em on by
Dosado the next little girl, right hand pull 'em on by
See saw the next by the left, left hand pull by
Dosado your own and promenade
Promenade the ring and everybody sing
In the good old summertime
FIGURE
Heads go up and back, do a right and left thru
Roll away with a half sashay, box the gnat across that way
Make a right hand star in the middle of the land
Go all the way round to the corner
Do an allemande left with the corner, come back home a dosado
Run to the corner, swing that girl around
Now take her by the hand and promenade the town
You Promenade the ring and everybody sing
In the good old summertime
(Alternative version by Willard Orlich)
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Join your hands and circle, circle left you go
Your partner left a dopaso and corner by the right
Your partner left and the men star right
Once around inside the ring, skip your own go the the corner
Allemande that corner and dosado at home
Turn your corner by the left and promenade your own
You help me sing while you walk around that ring
In the good old summertime
FIGURE
First and third promenade, go half way around that ring
Right and left thru right down the centre, turn that pretty thing
Four ladies chain across the floor
Chain back across the square (Rollaway)
Pass this girl and dosado the next
Your corner box the flea (Promenade)
You help me sing while you walk around that ring
In the good old summertime
