Swinging on a Star
SIR-380
Called by
Paul Bristow
OPENER & MIDDLE BREAK
CIRCLE LEFT:
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
LEFT ALLEMANDE and then DO SA DO - the MEN STAR LEFT one time and go
Would you like to swing on a star ­ TURN THRU
LEFT ALLEMANDE and PROMENADE far
And be better off than you are
- or would you rather be a mule?
FIGURE (1)
HEADS SQUARE THRU: - A mule is an animal with long funny ears
TOUCH A QUARTER, SCOOTBACK and then
SINGLE HINGE, GIRLS TRADE and now SWING THRU
BOYS RUN RIGHT, TAG THE LINE all the way ­ FACE IN
PASS THE OCEAN ­ CENTRES TRADE
RECYCLE ­ STAR THRU and PROMENADE
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
- You may grow up to be a mule
FIGURE (2)
HEADS SQUARE THRU: - A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
- You may grow up to be a pig
FIGURE (3 & 4)
HEADS SQUARE THRU: - A fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
- You may grow up to be a fish
CLOSER
SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather - ALLEMANDE LEFT and WEAVE THE RING
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
TAG
SWING your girl: - You could be swingin' on a star
