Hey Porter (ST 0103) Tommy Russell

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Walk around your corner, come back a dopaso
Turn partner left, corner by the right, partner left you know
Like an allemande thar, the men back in, back in like that
You slip the clutch, left allemande, weave on down the track
Hey porter! Hey porter!
Dosado for me, swing that lady once and promenade you see
When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to ring his bell
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell

FIGURE

1 & 3 (2 & 4) promenade halfway round the ring
Down the middle, right & left thru, turn that pretty thing
Square thru 4 hands go walkin' round you know
Swing thru, the men run right, hinge and trade and go
Hey porter! Hey porter!
Pass thru and swing
Swing that corner lady round, promenade the ring
Would you tell that engineer to blow his whistle please
Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves, and I feel that southern breeze
