Preachin Up A Storm (BC 116) Gary Kincade

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Sides face, grand square
*There was a crowd gathered down by the river
Where me and Benny Thompson used to play
Wondered if they had the water
To wash their sins away
Head ladies center teacup chain
Yea they were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore
Singin' peace in the valley and preachin' up a storm

FIGURE

Heads promenade and go halfway
Sides right & left thru, turn the girl, curlique
The boys run right now, spin chain the gears here we go
Yea they were down, oh Lordy, by the river
Swing that corner and promenade
Singing peach in the valley and preachin' up a storm

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*They were singin' in the rain, it was frightening
Somthings are hard to understand when you're eight
I could hear thunder, see the lightenin'
When preacher Hays raised his hands to pray

*I was there, and could barely hear the sermon

Someone said ssomething was a burning
Then shouted something about a ghost

TAG

All 8 to the middle and come back
Preachin' up a storm, whoa!
