Highway 40 Blues   (Stampede 303)   Skip Cleland, Jennifer Cleland

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER



Circle left
*Got them Highway 40 blues
I've walked holes in both my shoes

Left allemande and dosado you go
Left allemande and weave the ring you know
Wasted time and money too
Swing a little girl and promenade
In the end I had to lose, Lord above to pay my dues
Got them Highway 40 blues


FIGURE



The heads gonna promenade half and then
Walk in and square thru go four
Go all the way and you swing thru and then
Boys run right, get a ferris wheel
Square thru and go 3 hands around
Swing the girl and promenade
In the end I had to lose, Lord above to pay my dues

ADDITIONAL LYRICS



*The highway called when I was young
Told me lies of things to come

*My eyes are filled with bitter tears
Lord I ain't been home in years
