A Place In The Choir
(RIV 558)
Mike Seastrom
OPENER
(Grand Circle)
It's a simple song, a living song,
By the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear
The grumpy alligator and the hawk above
The sly ol' weasel Allemande Left and Weave
All God's creatures have a place in the choir
Dosado and Promenade her back home
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire
Some clap hands, paws or anything they've got
FIGURE
Heads (Sides) Promenade outside, go half way
Come into the middle, and then Promenade her back home
Four boys Circle Left one time in the middle you go
Back home, and then Four Girls Circle Left
One time around and then back home and look for your corner
Allemande Left come back and Dosado and Promenade
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire
Some clap hands, paws or anything they've got
MIDDLE BREAK
(Grand Circle)
The dogs and the cats, they take up the middle
The honey bee hums and the cricket fiddles
The donkey brays and the pony neighs
The old grey badger Allemande Left and Weave
All God's creatures have a place in the choir;
Dosado and Promenade her back home
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire
Some clap hands, paws or anything they've got
CLOSER
(Grand Circle)
Singin' in the night time, Singing in the day
The little duck quacks and is on his way
The otter, he hasn't got that much to say
And the porcupine says Allemande Left and Weave
All God's creatures have a place in the choir
Dosado and Promenade her back home
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire
Some clap hands, paws or anything they've got
TAG
