Robin Hood (SIR 357)   Paul Bristow   (Dick James)

 

OPENER

SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE:

He called the greatest archers, to a tavern on the green

They vowed to help the people of the king
They handled all the trouble, on the English country scene

And still found plenty of time to sing – CIRCLE LEFT

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen

ALLEMANDE LEFT and you come on and PROMENADE again
Feared by the bad, loved by the good

Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

 

 

FIGURE

Now the HEAD TWO COUPLES PROMENADE go HALFWAY ‘round the ring

Come down the middle and PASS THE OCEAN there – RECYCLE

PASS THRU and CIRCLE FOUR – JUST HALFWAY

VEER To The LEFT and the COUPLES CIRCULATE – BEND THE LINE

TOUCH A QUARTER, SINGLE FILE CIRCULATE and then

BOYS RUN RIGHT, SWING the Corner - PROMENADE the Ring

Feared by the bad, loved by the good - Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

 

 

MIDDLE BREAK

SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE:

He came to Sherwood Forest with a feather in his cap

A fighter never looking for a fight

His bow was always ready, and he kept his arrows sharp

He used them to fight for what was right – CIRCLE LEFT

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen

ALLEMANDE LEFT and you come on and PROMENADE again
Feared by the bad, loved by the good

Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

 

 

CLOSER

SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE:

With Friar Tuck and Little John they had a roguish look

They did the deeds the others wouldn't dare

He captured all the money that the evil sheriff took

And rescued many a lady fair – CIRCLE LEFT

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen

ALLEMANDE LEFT and you come on and PROMENADE again
Feared by the bad, loved by the good

Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

 

 

TAG: Robin Hood – SWING - Robin Hood - Robin Hood!
