Merry Christmas Polka (FS 794) Earl Rich

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Allemande left, grand sashay
The *merry Christmas polka, let's dance, let's dance, let's dance
Everyone's so happy
The air is filled with romance
When you meet your partner, do a dosado now
Take that girl and promenade
It's a sight to behold
For the young and the old
The *merry Christmas polka

FIGURE

Heads (sides) pass thru do a partner trade and then
Reverse the flutter full around
Sweep 1/4, then pass thru again
Do the right & left thru and turn that girl
Slide thru, square thru four hands around trade by
Swing that corner girl and promenade
It's a sight to behold
For the young and the old
We're dancing the Christmas polka

Bow to the partner, and the corner too, wave at the girl
across from you, very good dancing guys, you're through.

Do Si Do the first girl, give a Right hand Pull By
Seesaw the next girl, Left hand Pull By
Do Si Do the next girl, Right hand Pull By
Seesaw the next girl, Left hand Pull By
