***RESTART. You will start the third repetition facing [6].
Dance through count 24 in the third set (the sway turns right and modified mambo), then Restart from the beginning facing [9].
Ending: The last repetition starts facing [9], and you'll be at [12] for the last set.
Dance through the back rocking chair, then do a standard R coaster to stay facing the front on count 30.
Although these steps were created to fit the lyrics in this particular song, alternate tracks also work. These are evenly phrased and do not require the restart: Love Is A Rose by Lisa Loeb and Head South by Neal McCoy (slower tempo and good for teaching the dance); Crabbuckit by KOs; Country Down To My Soul by Lee Roy Parnell.
Other dances also work well with this track. Restart per this step sheet during third repetition or just dance through. Lil Yeller Blanket by John Robinson; Make It Right 32 by Lisa McCammon; Cheap Talk by Gaye Teather.
