Bye Bye Blackbird
(OT 1301)
Larry Ingber
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - ENDING
Allemande left, go allemande thar
Forward 2 and the gentlemen star
Bye, bye, blackbird
Shoot that star full around, slip the clutch, skip one girl
Left allemande and weave the ring
*No one here loves or understands me
Dosado and promenade go walkin' round the ring
Pull the shades, light the light
I'll be home late tonight, oh blackbird, bye, bye
FIGURE
4 little ladies chain 3/4 round the ring
Side 2 couples roll away 1/2 sashay
Head 2 couples a right & left thru
Turn the girl and then, you pass the ocean please
Scoot back, swing your girl around and then left allemande
Come back one a dosado and promenade the land
Well pull the shades, light the light
I'll be home late tonight, oh blackbird, bye, bye
