OPENER (SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE)
If we could leave this big ol’ city,
And head for the cabin we love
Back deep in the woods,
Woah, baby we would.
ALLEMANDE LEFT and WEAVE
If we could jump some big ol’
jet plane
And head for the islands …
SWING your girl and all PROMENADE
Oh, don’t you know we would.

Oh, we can’t do this and we can’t do that
But baby we can stay right where we’re at
ALLEMANDE LEFT your corner, DOSADO your own
ALLEMANDE LEFT your corner and WEAVE along

trip
Take a little trip … SWING and PROMENADE on home
Take a little time, leave it all behind
Take a little trip up to heaven tonight
CLOSER (Back out CIRCLE LEFT)
Pull down the shades, turn out the lights
Take a little trip up to heaven tonight
ALLEMANDE LEFT your corner, DOSADO your own
ALLEMANDE LEFT your corner and WEAVE along
Take a little trip, take a little
trip
Take a little trip up to heaven tonight
Take a little time, leave it all behind
Take a little trip, you and me out of sight.
