Gonna Be A Country Boy (RIV 225) Gary Mahnken

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Sides face, grand square
The rain is falling lightly on the buildings and the cars
We said goodbye to city friends, department stores and bars
The lights of town are at my back, my heart is full of stars
I'm gonna be a country boy again
Circle left
Yes, I'm gonna be a country boy again
Do an allemande left with the old left hand, swing and promenade
All of the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green
I'm gonna be a country boy again

FIGURE

Now 1 & 3 you promenade go halfway around the ring
Lead to the right, circle up four and make two lines I sing
Star thru and then veer to the left, the ladies trade
Those couples circulate one time around, ferris wheel
The centers swing thru, you turn thru and then
Swing the corner lady, promenade around the ring
All the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green
I'm gonna be a country boy again
