Why Baby Why    (D 673)   Frank Lane

INTRO - MIDDLE BREAK - ENDING



Circle left
*I've gotta crow, I wanta pick with you
Just like last night when the feathers flew

Allemande left your corner, dosado your own
Men star left go once around
Turn your partner by the right, your corner allemande
Come back home and swing your own
Promenade the land
**You're runnin' wild, kickin' up your heels
Leavin' me at home with a hand full of bills

ALTERNATE LYRICS



*Now I don't know, but I've heard say that
Every little dog is going to have its day

**You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget



*Caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend



**I'm not a-gonna leave you, but I still get sore



FIGURE



4 ladies chain 3/4 round
Heads promenade, go halfway around
Sides right & left thru, turn and roll away
All join hands, circle left that way
4 boys square thru 4 hands I say
Swing your corner lady and all promenade
I can't live without you till the day that I die
Well tell me why baby, why do I cry baby, cry

ALTERNATE FIGURE



Heads you promenade go halfway around
Same 2 right & left thru, turn the ladies now
Star thru and pass thru, do a dosado
Make a wave and ladies trade, then recycle, Joe
Pass thru, trade by, swing that corner maid
Promenade her home you go
I can't live without you till the day that I die
Well tell me why baby, why do I cry baby, cry
