Like a Puppet on a String   (Sandie Shaw) - STING 21711   (Mike Davey)

 

 (Opener Break): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE:

I - - - wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string - CIRCLE LEFT
Love is just like a merry-go-round
With all the fun - ALLEMANDE LEFT- PROMENADE
One day I'm feeling down on the ground - and then I'm up in the air

 

 (Figure):  HEADS FLUTTERWHEEL - are you leading me on?

PASS THE OCEAN here - EXTEND - the GIRLS TRADE - SPIN your TOP

And then the BOYS you RUN - BEND THE LINE - VEER to the LEFT - GIRLS CIRCULATE - CAST OFF

THREE QUARTERS ‘round - SLIDE THRU and then you SWING your Corner Lady ‘round - PROMENADE 

If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string

 

 

 (Middle Break): CIRCLE to the LEFT:

I - - - wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
WALK AROUND the CORNER Lady - SEE SAW ‘round the Partner - - - MEN STAR RIGHT

ALLEMANDE LEFT come back and you SWING - you take that Girl PROMENADE
One day I'm feeling down on the ground - then I'm up in the air

 

 (Closer & Tag): CIRCLE LEFT:

I - - - wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
WALK AROUND the CORNER Lady - - - SEE SAW with the Partner - now the MEN STAR RIGHT

LEFT ALLEMANDE the Corner - come back and SWING your Lady ‘round and then you all PROMENADE

If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string
- SWING - Like a puppet on a - - - - string

 

 

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

 

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string

Love is just like a merry-go-round
With all the fun of the fair
One day I'm feeling down on the ground
Then I'm up in the air
Are you leading me on?
Tomorrow will you be gone?

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string

I may win on the roundabout
Then I'll lose on the swings
In or out, there is never a doubt
Just who's pulling the strings
I'm all tied up to you
But where's it leading me to?

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string

Like a puppet on a..... string
