CHOREOGRAPHERS NOTE:

My favourite country music is Western Swing and these guys do it so well it always

makes me want to dance, so here I go again with another 2 step rhythm!

*As a guide when learning the dance, note that the first 4 sets of 8 counts use the

same count pattern, and I call this as "1,2,3,4, slow, slow."

No tags and medium tempo keep this dance in the Easy Intermediate range and I don't

believe it will be too difficult for the majority of experienced dancers to cope with.

The turn at the end (63,64) can easily be replaced with backward steps if they are

too fast or difficult, and everything else is (I think) very straight forward. The

dance will fit any 2 step music phrased to 64 counts if you are looking for an

alternative or a faster or slower tempo.

The song is available on a couple of different CDs and is currently available on a

compilation called Asleep At The Wheel, 23 Country Classics, and also be on my

compilation No.6.
