Gypsy (RIV 220) Nate Bliss

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

All four ladies promenade, go once around the ring
Get back home, box the gnat, give that girl a swing
Join hands and circle, go walkin' around that ring
Allemande left with the corner girl, weave around that ring
The moon stood still out on the leafy glade
Swing that lady around, and then we'll promenade
*Oh pretty gypsy forego your wandering ways
Pretty gypsy, I miss you night and day

FIGURE

Head two couples promenade, you go halfway around that ring
Down the middle with a right & left thru, turn the girl and then
Flutter wheel that floor, then you sweep 1/4 more
Pass thru, star thru, and then go right & left thru
Flutter wheel (whoop, whoop, whoop)
Reverse your flutter boys, and then you promenade
*Lovelier than lilies, softer than a rose
Pretty gypsy I wonder where she goes

ALTERNATE FIGURE

Head two couples promenade, you go halfway around that ring
Side two go right & left thru, turn that girl and then
Flutter wheel around that floor, then you sweep 1/4 more
Pass thru, relay the deucey, moving across that floor
The moon stood still out on the leafy glade
Swing that lady around, and then we'll all promenade
Once upon a time before you went away
We counted all the stars, and we waited for the day

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Once upon a time before you went away
We counted all the stars, and we waited for the day
