Circle

*Life
is like a mountain railway
With an engineer that's brave
Walk
all around your corner, see
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 right, circle
4 and make a line
Lines
of 4 forward
up and back, star
thru
Swing
thru and
then let the boys
run right
Ferris
wheel into the middle you
go
Centers
pass thru, square
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
