ESP 1193 When Did I Get Old Elmer Sheffield Jr

Opener

Circle left

When did I get old, when did everything change.

Men star right, turn it 1 time round,

Left Allemande and weave the ring,

Did time speed up, or did I slow down, I know my git up and go

Got up and left me now.

Figure

Heads square thru, then make a right hand star,

Heads star left, looking for the corner, a right & left thru,

Swing thru, then swing thru again, boys run right, then promenade

*It happens to the best, the best of us all.

**I'm just a man who used to have it all.

Break

Circle left

I used to fly so high, not seeing a thing,

Men star right, turn it 1 time round,

Left Allemande and weave the ring,

I was 10 feet tall, and all knew my name,

Now I'm just a man trying to do the same.

Figure

Sides square thru, then make a right hand star,

Sides star left, looking for the corner, a right & left thru,

Swing thru, then swing thru again, boys run right, then promenade

*It happens to the best, the best of us all.

**I'm just a man who used to have it all.
