You’re More Than A Number In My Little Red Book

 (The Drifters) - STING 21415   (Michael Braithwaite)  

 

(Opener and Middle Break): CIRCLE LEFT

You're more than a number in my little red book
You’re more than a one night date
ALLEMANDE LEFT your Corner – TURN THE PARTNER RIGHT

ALLEMANDE LEFT the Corner back and WEAVE THE RING
You're more than a number in my little red book
You all SWING the Girl – PROMENADE
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number in my little red book

 

 

(Figure - 1, 2 & 4): The HEADS LEAD RIGHT – VEER to the LEFT– BEND THE LINE 

You PASS THE OCEAN – SPIN CHAIN THRU – the GIRLS FACE RIGHT– TWICE

Everybody CAST OFF – THREE QUARTERS will do

And now SQUARE THRU there its THREE hands now SWING the Girl and PROMENADE

In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number in my little red book

 

 

(Figure - 3): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE

Oh baby give us a chance
Don't let the small town rumours end our first romance
Now I admit I've loved a few
But there was never one like you

 SIDES SQUARE THRU its FOUR hands now – SWING CORNER girl and PROMENADE

In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number in my little red book

 

 

(Closer): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE

You're more than a number in my little red book

You're more than a one night date
All it had to take me was just one look

My heart began a thumpin' - babe you had it jumpin'

The girls PROMENADE go walking round the land – you all SWING the Girl and PROMENADE
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took

You're more than a number SWING your baby around now

 

(Tag): You're more than a number

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

 

You're more than a number in my little red book,
you're more than a one night date,
All it had to take me was just one look,
My heart began a thumpin', Babe you had it jumpin'

 

Cause' you're more than a number in my little red book,
You're more than a one night stand,
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took,
You're more than a number, written in my little red book.

 

Oh baby give us a chance,
Don't let the small town rumours end our first real romance,
Now I admit I've loved a few,
But there was never one like you,

 

Oh baby, You gave me a sign,
I threw away the numbers of those old flames of mine,
And now they're tryin' to put you whilst,
Knock me down in my girls eyes,

 

So Darlin, dont believe the things that they say
