ESP 1191 - Green River
by Elmer Sheffield Jr.

Opener

Circle left

Take me back down where cool water flows, Let me remember the things that I love,

The men star right and you roll it around, Left allemande the corner and you weave it around,

Stopping at the log where catfish bite, walking along the river road at night,

Pick up a flat rock skip it across Green River.


Figure

Well now the heads square thru and get 4 hands around, You make a right hand star,

Heads star left and turn it one time, Right & left thru and roll her away, Touch 1/4, then scoot back and go,

Swing that corner, Promenade you know,

Pick up a flat rock skip it across Green River.


Break

Circle Left

I can hear the bullfrogs calling me, wonder if my ropes still hanging from the tree,

The men star right and you roll it around, Left allemande the corner and you weave it around,

Love to stick my feet down in shallow water, shoo fly dragon fly get back to your mother,

Pick up a flat rock skip it across Green River.


Figure

Well now the sides square thru and get 4 hands around, You make a right hand star,

Sides star left and turn it one time, Right & left thru and roll her away, Touch 1/4, then scoot back and go,

Swing that corner, Promenade you know,

Pick up a flat rock skip it across Green River.

Closer

Circle Left

Well up at Cody's camp I spent my days with flat car riders and barefoot babes,

The men star right and you roll it around, Left allemande the corner and you weave it around,

Well 'Ol Cody Junior took me on over, said you're gonna find the world is smolderin'

But if you get lost, come on home to Green River.
