INTRO - BREAK - CLOSER

Circle left
 Well, I left Louisville early one morning
    Was heading down south to Birmingham 
Do an allemande left with the corner, come back, dosado
4 men star by the left once around you go
Turn your partner by the right and corners allemande
You swing your own little girl and promenade
 Just whisper in her ear & say I love you and
    Take her all the way to Birmingham 

FIGURE

Now 1 & 3 (2 & 4) you promenade, go 1/2 way
Come into the middle & square thru, go 4
4 hands around you go, then do a right & left thru
You turn the girl and veer to the left & couples ferris wheel
Centers square thru 3 hands around there
You swing the girl around and promenade
 Just squeeze her hand and tell her you love her and
    Take her all the way to Birmingham
