Choreographers Note:

This song, from one of the early Dixie Chicks CDs before they were a 'hit' has been a

favourite of mine for years, so here at last is a dance to it, hope you like it also.

Despite the turns and all the syncopations, the tempo is slow and I don't think it is

too difficult. I  increased the pitch (speed) slightly which seemed to please everyone

who thought it was too slow.

The song is available on my CD Compilation No.10.
