Friday Night Blues (JP 208) Joe Porritt

OPENER

Head ladies center teacup chain
He's been workin' all week, he's got mental fatigue
And that old couch sure looks fine
All week he's been gone, she's been sittin' alone
Slowly going out...
Sides face grand square
As he kicks off his shoes for the 6 o'clock news
She's gettin' all prettied up
She's feelin' so lonely, and think she's the only...
Join up all hands circle left

Oh those Friday night blues, they get in your shoes

Men you star right, with all of your might
Left allemande, come home dosado
4 ladies star by the right, go one time tonight
Turn partner left, and roll promenade
While she's puttin' her shoes on, I'm takin' mine off
She's got the Friday night blues

FIGURE (4 times in a row)

1 & 3 (2 & 4) promenade halfway with your maid
Sides square thru go four, forget all your blues
And then swing thru, boys run right, ferris wheel
Double pass thru, lead couples zoom, the others trade
Swing corner, promenade
While she's wantin' to boogie, he wants to lay there
She's got the Friday night blues

CLOSER

Circle left
Oh those Friday night blues, they get in your shoes
And they work to get you down
Men you star right, with all of your might
Left allemande, come home dosado
4 ladies star by the right, go one time tonight
Turn partner left, and roll promenade
While she's puttin' her shoes on, I'm takin' mine off
She's got the Friday night blues
