Stars on the Water  (KDM 209)  Glenn Wilson  (Jimmy Buffet) 1983 -  (George Strait) 2001

OPENER

Circle Left

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by

The Men Star Right, turn it one time tonight

Left Allemande and Baby, Weave that Ring

Pretty soon you got stars on the water

Swing with your girl, Promenade her

You got stars on the water, when it rains

ALTERNATE OPENER

Sides Face Grand Square

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by
A pirogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide

Left Allemande and Baby, Weave that Ring

Pretty soon you got stars on the water

Swing your girl, Promenade her home
You got stars on the water, when it rains

FIGURE

Heads Promenade travel Halfway
Come down the middle, Pass the Ocean, Extend

Swing Thru and now, you Spin that Top

Boys move up, everybody Slide Thru

Tch. 1/4 and then, Scoot Back my friend

Swing your girl, Promenade her home

You got stars on the water, when it rains

MIDDLE BREAK

Sides Face Grand Square

Beaumont to Biloxi
Sea breeze at your door
Gypsy Rings, dang Hurricanes

Left Allemande and Baby, Weave that Ring

Blue Light lounge is shinin'

Swing your girl, Promenade her home
You got stars on the water, when it rains

CLOSER

Sides Face Grand Square

When it's midnight down in Mobile
Shinin' moonbeams on the bay
They come from miles around

Left Allemande and Baby, Weave that Ring
Night lights shinin' on

Swing your girl, Promenade her home

You got stars on the water, when it rains

TAG

Swing her there

ORIGINAL LYRICS

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by
A pirogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide
Beer joint lights come on
And then the crowd starts rollin' in

Pretty soon you got stars on the water
You got stars on the water
You got stars on the water, when it rains

 

Beaumont to Biloxi
Sea
breeze at your door
Gypsy rings, dang hurricanes
White silver sandy shore
Blue Light lounge is shinin'
Way out on the piers

Makes it look just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water, when it rains

 

Instrumental Break

 

When it's midnight down in Mobile
Shinin' moonbeams on the bay
They come from miles around
To dance the jukebox down

To hear the good time sounds they play
All across the harbour
Night lights shinin' on

Makes you feel just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water, when it rains

 

Makes you feel just like stars on the water
You got stars on the water
You got stars on the water, when it rains
