Don´t Cross The River (ESP 1067) Elmer Sheffield

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Four ladies promenade inside that ol ring
Get back home give your man a swing
Join all your hands and you circle for a while
Left allemande, weave the ring
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t try denying living on the other side
All your life…… you were on your own.

FIGURE

Head couples square thru four hands you know
Then make a right hand star….. half way
As a couple veer left, chain down the line
Up to the middle and pass the ocean go
Scoot back once, do that again
Swing that corner promenade around and then
All your life…. You were on your own
