REPEAT
Because this is an older dance, variations are plentiful, and the dance is done differently in different parts of the world.
Add ½ turns to the left to counts 21 and 22 to get the version most often seen on the west coast:
21Step forward on left turning ½ turn right
22Step back on right turning ½ turn right
There is a 32 count version that adds a step before count 1 like this:
STEP LEFT, KICK RIGHT
1Step forward on left
2Kick right forward
To make it 32 counts, slow down all of those half turns at count 18 (now called count 19 because we added an extra step before count 1).
CROSS, BACK LEFT, ½ TURN
19Cross right over left
20Step back on left
21Turn right ½
STEP, PIVOT, STEP, PIVOT
22Step forward on left
23Pivot ½
24Step forward on left
25Pivot ½
When done this way, the heel swivels in the second-to-last count are usually done to the right instead of to the left.
There is also a 25-count version where counts 14-17 are executed in two counts instead of four as:
14&Touch right heel forward, pivot ¼ turn left
15&Touch right heel forward, pivot ¼ turn left
Then replace counts 19-26 with
17Step to the left side with your left
18Cross your right foot behind your left
19Pivot on the left foot making a ¼ turn to the right
20Step to your right side with the right foot
21Cross your left foot in front of your right
22Step to the side with the right
Again, heel swivels are to the right with this version.
To turn that into a 24-count version, some dancers will combine the first two counts as follows:
&Kick right foot forward (or scuff right foot forward)
1Step back on right foot
1Kick right foot forward
2Step back on right foot
3Step back on left foot
4Step back on right foot
5Touch left toe back
