Mexican Joe (TAR 130) Buck Hastedt

OPENER

Circle Left
South of the border, I know a lad
He's got more fun, than anybody has
Left Allemande your corner, come back a dosado
Men star by the left and turn it round you go
Turn your partner by the right, the corner allemande
Swing that lady round and round and promenade the land
Ain't got no worry's, Ain't got no dough
Everybody's wonderin' bout Mexican Joe

FIGURE

Heads (Sides) promenade half way round you go
Down the middle and square thru & get me 4 you know
Four hands around now, swing thru and then
Boys run to the right, couples circulate & then
Ladies trade, bend the line, square thru 3 hands
Swing the corner lady round & promenade the land
Dancin' Romancin', always on the go
Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe

MIDDLE BREAK

Circle Left
He makes all the night spots all along the bay
People want to see him when he comes their way
Left allemande your corner, come back a dosado
Men star by the left, turn it once around & go
Turn your partner by the right
Your corner allemande, swing that lady round & round
and promenade that land
Dancin' Romancin' Always on the go
Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe

CLOSER

Circle Left
In old Mexico, they call him the rhumba king
leads all the women around on a string
Left allemande your corner, come back a dosado
Men star by the left, turn it once around & go
Turn your partner by the right
The corner allemande, Swing the lady round & round
and promenade the land
When they go out, they get a million thrills
But the lovely senoritas wind up with all the bills
