Strong Enough To Bend   (Blue Ribbon 248 )   Burlin Davis

OPENER - CLOSER



Head ladies, teacup chain
There's a tree out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
And the reason it's still standing
It was strong enough to bend

Allemande left that corner, come back & dosado
Swing your lady there and promenade
Our love will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend


FIGURE



Well the heads (sides) lead right
Circle 4 and make a line
Forward up and come on back with you
Right and left thru, turn your girl around and
Touch 1/4 more, coordinate and then move right up and
Bend the line, star thru, pass thru & trade by
Swing with your corner, promenade
Our love will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend


BREAK



Circle to the left
There's a tree out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind

Men star right one time around go
Allemande left that corner lady, weave the ring
Move in and out around and when you meet her
Dosado around and then you promenade
Our love will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend
