Ball And Chain (BUC 1242) Dick Neumann

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Circle left
When we made our plans to tie the knot
My friends they all laughed at me a lot
Allemande left with the corner, turn the partner right
Left allemande and then you weave that ring
Well love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
Swing your girl and then you promenade you see
If you are my jailer darlin' throw away the key
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me

FIGURE

Head/side two couples promenade 1/2 way
Come down the middle square thru 4 I say
4 hands and then, do the right & left thru
Veer to the left & the couples circulate by two's
1/2 tag, scoot back, and scoot back again
Swing on the corner lady, promenade my friend
If you are my jailer darlin' throw away the key
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
