Cracklin’ Rosie (Neil Diamond) - STING 21204 (Paul Bristow)

(Opener): You circle left

Oh Cracklin' Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride till there ain't no more to go

Left Allemande you know, do sa do

Allemande Left your corner and Weave The Ring go
Hitchin' on a twilight train

Swing with your girl Promenade again
And Lord, don't you know…
- Have me a time with a poor man's lady

(Figure): HEADS PASS THRU – SEPARATE AROUND TWO You MAKE A LINE of four,

TOUCH A QUARTER and the BOYS RUN RIGHT – SWING THRU tonight – – – the BOYS you TRADE – the BOYS RUN RIGHT and then

You FERRIS WHEEL – – PASS THRU – SWING THRU – SWING your Corner Lady – and you PROMENADE her home

To set the world right…

- Find us a dream that don't asks no questions

(Maybe a song that I want… - don't need to say please)

(Middle Break & Closer): Sides Face Grand Square

Oh, I love my Rosie child - she got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style - Cracklin' Rosie you're a store-bought woman – FOUR LADIES CHAIN
You make me sing like a guitar hummin' – CHAIN THEM HOME
Hang on to me, girl – you PROMENADE and you – keep runnin' on
Play it now - play it now - play it now, my baby

(Tag): Swing your girl, once around - play it now - play it now, my baby

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

Oh Cracklin' Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride till there ain't no more to go
Taking it slow –

And Lord, don't you know
Have me a time with a poor man's lady

Hitchin' on a twilight train
Ain't nothing here that I care to take along
Maybe a song

To sing when I want
Don't need to say please to no man for a happy tune

Oh, I love my Rosie child
She got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin' Rosie you're a store-bought woman
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl - Our song keeps runnin' on

- - - - - - - -
Play it now - Play it now - Play it now, my baby

Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile
Girl if it lasts for an hour, well that's all right

Cause we got all night
To set the world right
Find us a dream that don't asks no questions, yeah
