Darktown Strutters Ball (HH 0317) Walt Jessup

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK

Walk all around your corner, turn your partner by the left
4 ladies gonna chain, straight across the set
Turn 'em round, chain 'em back across I say
Why don't you join hands and circle left around that way
Go struttin' with your lady, do a left allemande
Then weave that ring, in and out so grand
Meet your own, dosado you do
Left allemande, promenade to the blues
We're gonna dance all night at the Dark Town Strutters Ball

FIGURE

Left allemande new corner, then you weave that square
Gonna dance on both of my shoes
