Unicorn Song (Alliance 111 ) Dale Smith

OPENER

Sides face grand square
A long time ago when the earth was green
There were more kinds of animals than you've ever seen
They'd run around free while the earth was being born
The loveliest of all was the unicorn
Four ladies chain, you turn 'em and then
Chain that lady home, promenade along
There's cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you're born,
The loveliest of all is the unicorn

FIGURE

Heads square thru and count four hand around
Dosado the corner one time around
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Tag the line, cloverleaf (girls lead tonight)
Girls square thru 3/4 and then swing the corner man
and promenade along
There's cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you're born
The loveliest of all is the unicorn

MIDDLE BREAK

Circle left
Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
Those unicorns were hiding, playing silly games
Men star right and roll it one time around
Left allemande the corner and weave the ring
There's green alligators and long neck geese
Swing your girl around and promenade along
There's cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you're born
The loveliest of all is the unicorn

CLOSER

Sides face grand square
The ark started moving and drifting with the tide
The unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
That is why you never see a unicorn today
Four ladies chain you turn 'em and then
Chain that lady home, promenade along
There's cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you're born
You're never going to see a unicorn

TAG

You're never going to see a unicorn
