The Gandy Dancers' Ball   (Windsor 4965 )   Larry Jack

INTRO - BREAK (no CLOSER - 6 times through)



Circle left
The boys all gather at the great affair
The Gandy Dancers' Ball

Allemande left like an allemande thar
Go right & left and the men back in, you've got a back-up star
Shoot that star full turn, pull the partner by
Allemande left, then weave around the ring
You go dancin' round the land with a Gandy dancin' man
Dosado and then promenade
They dance on the ceiling, they dance on the walls
At the Gandy Dancers' Ball


FIGURE



Heads star thru, pass thru, circle four
Break and make a line, now up to the middle and back
Pass thru, wheel & deal, centers pass thru
Go right & left thru the outside 2 and eight chain thru
*There's Mackinaw Mack, Toledo Jack
And the boys from Idaho

Swing that corner around, swing around I sing
Left allemande, come back and promenade
They dance on the ceiling, they dance on the walls
At the Gandy Dancers' Ball


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*There's Saginaw Sid, the Frisco Kid
And good olf Cotton Eyed Joe
