I’m Alright  (Jo Dee Messina) - STING 21910   (Thorsten Hubmann)

 (Opener, Middle Break & Closer):

FOUR LADIES CHAIN the ring - turn the Girl and hear me sing

You ROLLAWAY - CIRCLE to the LEFT around there and go

FOUR LADIES ROLLAWAY - CIRCLE to the LEFT I say

ALLEMANDE - a LEFT ALLEMANDE - and WEAVE around THE RING
I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright - SWING and whirl the pretty little Girl - and PROMENADE tonight

(It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight)

Oh - oh, Oh - oh, I'm alright

Got a good ole friend here with me tonight

 - so I guess I'm doing alright

 (Figure): HEADS PROMENADE you go - HALFWAY ‘round the ring

Rock in and SQUARE THRU FOUR - four hands ‘round I sing

Go all the way and then - a RIGHT AND LEFT THRU and turn - PASS THRU - TRADE BY and then

TOUCH A QUARTER - SCOOTBACK and then - well SCOOT BACK again

SWING and whirl the pretty little Girl - and PROMENADE again

Oh - oh, Oh - oh, I'm alright

Got a good ole friend here with me tonight

 - so I guess I'm doing alright

 (Tag): I guess I'm doing alri --- i --- i --- ght ---

Got a good ole friend here with me tonight

 - so I guess I'm doing alright

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

Well it's been a long time, glad to see your face - I knew we'd meet again another time, another place
Can't believe it's been so many years - We better grab a chair and a couple of beers
You're lookin' good in your three piece suit - You know I always knew you'd take the business route
You were always the one who followed the light and - You look like you're doing alright

I've been singing for my rent and singing for my supper - I'm above the below and below the upper
I'm stuck in the middle where the money gets tight - But I guess I'm doing alright

I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright

 - It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight - So I guess I'm doing alright
I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright

 - Got a good ole friend here with me tonight - So I guess I'm doing alright

Well we raised a lot of hell when we were younger - They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
We kept a lot of friends and skipped a lot of class - Been on top of the world and knocked on our ass
Lost touch, we lost in love - And lost our minds when things got tough
But beating time is a losing fight - But I guess I'm doing alright

Well I hate to see this evening end - God only knows when I'll see you again
Send a fax or send me a letter - Or give me a call that will even be better
Give the wife a kiss for me - And say hello to the family
Tell them all my future's looking bright and I miss them - But I'm doing alright (I said: I miss them - But I'm doing alright)

I guess I'm doing alri --- i --- i --- ght --- I guess I'm doing alright!
