Texas Tea (TB 227) Bud Whitten

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

All 4 ladies chain, turn Joanna around and roll away
Circle left
4 ladies roll away, circle left that way
Left allemande, weave the ring
*I was just a plow boy, she couldn't love the likes of me
Dosado and promenade
Back then she didn't know that soon I'd discover Texas tea

FIGURE

Heads roll away, star thru across the way
Dosado the outside 2
Square thru and go 3/4 around you know
Trade by, right & left thru, turn your girl
Roll a half sashay, swing the girl across the way and promenade her
Back then she didn't know about the Texas tea
That lay beneath my ground

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Where once stood my cabin, I live in a southern mansion now
Dosado and promenade
And gaze at the oil well that stands on the ground I used to plow

*You said I was a plow boy and you couldn't love the likes of me

So, goodbye Joanna, I've gotta see about my Texas tea

TAG

Bow to the partner and corner too
Thank her there, you're through
