YMCA (RIV 250) Ken Bower

OPENER

Circle Left
Young man, there’s no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
Swing your girl around and Promenade
If you go there, well, I’m sure you will find
A good place there to have a good time

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
I said, young man, come on and listen to me*
You can be anything that you want to be

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Circle Left
Y-M-C-A, I want to tell you ‘bout the Y-M-C-A
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
Y-M-C-A, I want to tell you ‘bout the Y-M-C-A
You can be anything that you want to be
He said young man come on and listen to me**

TAG

**When you get back home everybody face the stage, hands up high

ADDITIONAL LYRICS

*You can stay there and I’m sure you will find So many ways to have a good time. [Circle left. Hands up.]
