Give Me Back My Blues    (D&R 145)  Ron Russel

OPENER



Circle Left
Well way down here in Southern West Virginia
Lived a girl they call Emma Jean
Why don't you walk around the corner girl ans see saw your own
Left allemande and weave the ring
Now Emma Jean told me you're gonna be my husband
Do sa do and promenade
Well i say hello good times so long ramblin
By, by to down and out blues

FIGURE



One and three roll away, star thru i say
With the outside two make a right hand star
Heads star left in the middle you go, once around you know
Same two square thru three hands
Trade by, step to an ocean wave
Swing thru, the boy trade, swing old corner promenade
Well i say hello good times so long ramblin
By, by to down and out blues

MIDDLE BREAK



Circle Left
Mamma she's told me don't marry for money
She may just act like a queen
Why dont you walk around the corner girl ans see saw your own
Left allemande and weave the ring
Well Buddy i know don't you marry for dough
Do sa do and promenade
Well i tell you son if you marry for mon you're gonna earn every penny

CLOSER



Circle Left
Now breakfast in bed aint bad for your head
If you're lying around just having a snack
Why dont you walk around the corner girl ans see saw your own
Left allemande and weave the ring
Well Buddy i know don't you marry for dough
Do sa do and promenade
Well i'm gonna run being rich aint no fun, Hey judge wont you give back
Judge won't you give me, hey , hey won't you give me back my blues

ADDITIONAL LYRICS



One and three you lead to the right,circel up four there tonight
Without a stop do a right and left thru
Curlique my friend, two step at time and then
Do a double pass thru, first two left next two right
Star thru, pass thru, swing a little corner girl
Left allemande and promenade
