America, America (MR 69) Ron Everhart

OPENER

Heads face, grand square
Some have said down through history
If you last it's a mystery
But I guess they don't know what they're talking about
Head ladies center tea cup chain
From the mountains down to the sea
You've become such a habit with me
America, America

FIGURE

Heads (sides) square thru 4 hands around
Split the outside 2, round one make a line
Go 8 to the middle and back, star thru and then
Trade by, swing thru you do
Boys run right, ferris wheel, square thru go three
Swing that corner, promenade
America, America

MIDDLE BREAK

Heads face, grand square
Well I come from down around Tennessee
But the people in California
Are nice to me, America
Head ladies center tea cup chain
It don't matter where I may roam
Tell your people that it's home sweet home
America, America

CLOSER

Heads face, grand square
Oh the men who felt the plain
And who lived through hardship and pain
America, America
Head ladies center tea cup chain
And the men who could not fight
In a war that didn't seem right
You let them come home America

TAG

Swing her
Home sweet home America
