Why Havent I Heard From You
(RYL 1212) Patty Greene
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Circle Left
Back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell
Invented a contraption that we know so well
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
So tell me why, haven't I heard from you
Swing your girl around and Promenade
Darlin', honey what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
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
Darlin', honey what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
Back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell
Invented a contraption that we know so well
By the 1950's they were in everybody's home
As a crazy little thing they call the telephone
So tell me why, haven't I heard from you
I say now: Darlin', honey
what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
The service man he told me that my phone is working fine
And I've come to the conclusion trouble isn't with my line
I'm sure the operator will be glad to put you thru
So dial zero for assistance if this all confuses you
There better been a flood, a landslide of mud
A fire that burns up the wires
And a thunder so loud with a black funnel cloud
A natural disaster I know nothin' about
