Living On Easy Street (BRAM 104) James Maxey

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Circle left
We're living on easy street with a dog and a Persian cat
We're living on easy street, we don't need this or that
Walk out around that corner, turn partner left at home
Four men star right it's once inside you roam, meet your partner
Pass her by, corner allemande, come on back and
Promenade go moving around that land
Well the bills are gonna be due
And the baby will soon be two
But we get our welfare check next week
We're living on easy street

FIGURE

1 & 3 (2 & 4) you square thru four hands around that ring
Dosado the outside two make an ocean wave and then
Swing thru two by two and boys are gonna trade
Boys run right and bend that line then do a right & left thru
Ladies lead dixie style get that ocean wave
Men cross fold, swing and promenade
Well the old ice box is empty
And the cupboard is bare and clean
We don't have a pot, we don't have a dime
But we're fulfilling our dream

ALTERNATE LYRICS

In a two room shack, on a twenty foot lot
The way we live, it's perfect spot
We're living on love and it sure is cheap
We're living on easy street

TAG
