Caribbean    (ST 1082)  Lawrence Johnstone

OPENER



Circle Left
Have you ever been down to Haiti when the summer sun was sinking low
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
But when the Cuban queen comes upon the scene they all stare
Swing your girl around and Promenade
And when the realize what’s before their eyes, the other girls are left alone.

FIGURE



Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
And when the realize what’s before their eyes, the other girls are left alone.

MIDDLE BREAK



Circle Left
Down in the Caribbean it’s not a dream you’re seeing
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Boys star left one time around
You turn your partner right, left allemande tonight
Swing your girl around and Promenade
But from miles away you can see her sway
To the beat of the conga line.

CLOSER



Circle Left
Up in a tree so high way up in the sky, sits a wide-eyed monkey on a limb
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
He doesn’t understand that it’s a lady’s hand that makes a heart feel so sublime.
But before too long he starts singing the song, then he gets in the conga line.
