Help Me Make It Thru The Night    (ESP 1103)   Elmer Sheffield, Jr.

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER



Circle left
*Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose, let it fall

Men star right and roll it round
Left allemande and weave the hall
Come and lay down by my side
Meet your girl and promenade
It's so hard to be alone
Help me make it thru the night

FIGURE



Heads (sides) square thru you know
Round the corner dosado
Swing thru, then spin the top
Boys move up, slide thru, touch 1/4
Scoot back, do that again
Swing your corner promenade
All I'm taking is your time
Help me make it thru the night

ALTERNATE LYRICS



*Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight

TAG



Swing
It's so hard to be alone
Help me make it thru the night
