Premium Member Alligator Sashay v1
Circle left, hang on tight
Don't get caught in an alligator bite

Allemande left, what you want to do
Is turn that alligator into stew

Alligator shoes look mighty grand

Roll away to a half sashay
If you're a gator, forget what I say...

Premium Member Square Dance Patter Sayings
Bow to the partner in the corner
Hey, this dance ain't nothin' but torture!

Heads lean left and circle to a line
Guzzle down that old moonshine!

Roll away to a half sashay

but for God's sakes don't let her sing!

Meet your partner and promenade
Slip a little 'shine in the lemonade!

Allemande left with your left hand
Drop him in a big box of quicksand!...

Swirl around like an eddy in rhythmic flair,
dance to the beat of heart in the square.
