OPENER   Sides face, grand square
Sally called when she got the word
She said, I suppose you've heard - about Alice
All four ladies chain you turn that girl around - Chain your lady back and promenade around and round
A big limousine rolled up - Into Alice's drive

 

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER   Sides face, grand square
Don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna go
I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't want to know
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door - To Alice

allemande left and weave
24 years just waiting for a chance
I guess she's got her reasons, but I need a second chance
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice

TAG   Swing
No I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice

FIGURE  Heads   ...........        all will promenade
Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice
A big limousine pulled slowly Out of Alice's drive
And the big limousine Disappeared
Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice
