Paying Off The Interest (K 1042) Lee Helsel

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Head 2 ladies chain, turn your girl and then
Side 2 ladies chain across the ring
4 ladies chain back home, turn your girl alone
Gents star right and to your corner go
Allemande left your corner, grand old right & left
Meet your girl and promenade the ring
*You said you would be mine, we signed the dotted line
Now I'm paying off the interest with my tears

FIGURE

Allemande your corners all, turn a right hand round your taw
4 ladies promenade inside the ring
Box the gnat at home, swing her there alone
Join hands and circle round the ring
Whirlaway a half sashay, grand right & left around
When you meet that brand new lady promenade
*I didn't understand your easy payment plan
Now I'm paying off the interest with my tears

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I never knew your love was like a charge account

*That contract that we wrote was just a short term note

*At the expiration date you said there's no rebate

*Another love you've chose, now my account is closed

*You meant it when you said it that I'd run out of credit
