Elmer´s Tune (RIV 338) Tim Marriner

OPENER

Grand Square
What are the stars always winkin’ and blinkin’ above?
What makes a fella start thinkin’ of fallin’ in love?
It’s not the season, the reason is plane as the moon
It’s just Elmer’s tune.
Four ladies Promenade go one time inside that old ring.
Come back Swing and whirl your man around, then Promenade I sing.
It’s not the season, the reason is plane as the moon
It’s just Elmer’s tune.

FIGURE

Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
It’s not the season, the reason is plane as the moon
It’s just Elmer’s tune.

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Grand Square
Listen. Listen.
There’s a lot you’re liable to be missin’.
Sing it; swing it
Any old time and any old way
Four ladies Promenade go one time inside that old ring.
Come back Swing and whirl your man around, then Promenade I sing.
* What puts the kick in a chicken, the magic of June?
It’s just Elmer’s tune.

TAG

ADDITIONAL LYRICS
