Mountain Railway   (Jopat 239)   Joe Porritt, Cliff Porritt


OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*Life is like a mountain railway
With an engineer that's brave

Walk all around your cornersee saw your own
Left allemande and weave around the ring
Heed the curves, the hills, the tunnels
Dosado and promenade
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
FIGURE (heads twice, sides twice)    Basic, corner progression

Heads lead rightcircle 4 and make a line
Lines of 4 
forward up and backstar thru
Swing thru and then let the boys run right
Ferris wheel into the middle you go
Centers pass thrusquare thru 3 hands
Swing the corner girl and promenade
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail

*As we roll along the mainline
There'll be storms and there'll be night
