I Wish (RR 340) Jet Roberts

OPENER

Circle Left
Looking back on when
I was just a little bitty boy
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
Even though for Christmas, we could not get a thing
We were happy with the joy the day would bring
I wish those days, they, didnīt have to go
I loved them so

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 wish those days could come back once more
I kiss them so

MIDDLE BREAK

Circle Left
Sneaking out the back door
Hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
Trying your best to bring the water to your eyes
Thinking that would stop her from whuppin behind
I wish those days, they, didnīt have to go
I loved them so

CLOSER

Circle Left
Smooking cigarettes and
Writinī something nasty on the wall (you nasty boy)
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
You grow up and learn that kind thing ainīt right
But while you were doing it, it sure felt oughta sight
Why did those days they ever have to go
I loved them so
