American Pie   (Royal 325 )   Jerry Story, Tony Oxendine

OPENER - BREAK - CLOSER



A long long time ago - I can still remember
The day the music died

Circle left
Bye, bye Mis American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry

Left allemande the corner - turn a right hand around your own
Left Allemande and weave the ring
Bye, bye Mis American Pie Swing your girl and promenade her I cry
Then good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

FIGURE



Heads promenade half way round
Walk in and square thru four hands 'round
Go all the way and do a right and left thru
Veer left and ferris wheel around you do
Square thru three hands around
Swing your corner girl and promenade my friend
The day the music died

TAG



Singing this'll be the day that I die
