OPENER - BREAK - CLOSER

Circle left
* There are people in this country
     Who work hard every day
     Not for fame or fortune do they strive 
Left allemande that corner, come home dosado
Men star by the left go once inside
You turn the partner by the right, go left allemande
Come back one & swing, promenade the land
** Hello Detroit auto worker, thank you for your time
      Workin' hard for a living, to send it on down the line 

* You can see them every morning
     In the factories & the fields
     City streets & quiet country towns 

** Hello Kansas wheat field farmer
      Hello Pittsburg steel mill worker
      Hello West Virginia coal miner 

FIGURE

Head/side couples promenade 1/2 way you go
Walk in & square thru, gotta get 4 you know
When you meet the sides, a right hand star exactly 1/2 way around
As a couple, veer left, as a couple circulate
Bend the line, reverse flutterwheel
Keep this girl & promenade the ring
 Workin' together like spokes inside a wheel
    Keepin' this country turnin' round 

TAG

4 ladies chain over and back
 Oh beautiful for spacious skies for amber waves of grain
