I Got A Feeling    (RIV 282)  Randy Dougherty

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK



Circle Left
I’ve gotta feeling today is going to be a good day.*
Circle Right.
Today is going to be a good day, I’ve gotta feeling
Four men Promenade inside. Go once around
Get back home, find your Jane, take her by the hand
Promenade her, go all the way
Let’s live it up! I’ve got some money. Let’s spend it all, let’s have a ball.**
Get up! Get up! Get up! Here we go.

FIGURE



Heads [sides] Promenade outside, go half way around
Walk into the middle and Circle four, all the way around
Back out of there, heads.
Sides circle four, half way around
Look for the corner, Allemande Left and Right & Left Grand
I’ve gotta feeling today is going to be a good day.
Take her hand and you Promenade her home.
I know we’ll have a ball! Get down. Get off that sofa.**
Get up! Get up! Let’s have a ball.

CLOSER



All Circle left single file, put your hands up high & clap them
Go the other way back, keep clapping ‘em.
Four boys Promenade in the middle of the ring
Come back home, find your girl, and
Take her by the hand and Promenade ‘em.
I’ve got some money. Let’s live it up.
Let’s spend it all, and have a ball.
When you get back home, dance eight to the middle and come back.
I’ve gotta feelin’ it’s gonna be a good night.
