OKAY HERE'S THE DEAL
Great tune, not so great phrasing, but I kept hearing the "Let 'Er Rip"-ish opening & had to give it a go. There are a couple of things to remember, besides the basic step pattern
1. When facing front wall the dance will start from the very beginning (BIG DEAL - the side touches) (see note for grand finale)
2. When facing the back wall, the dance will always start with count 9 (REAL DEAL - omitting the side touches). Execute a left jazz box with a right touch together on count 56. Omit the last 8 counts if the dance always.
3. After the left jazz box with a right touch together (you will be facing the front wall & about to start the dance from the top), think 2-4-0. That is the number of turns you will now do before starting the dance again from the front wall.
The first time you end up facing the front wall do the following (after count 56) 2 turns
RIGHT FORWARD, ½ LEFT PIVOT TURN - 2X

1-4Step right foot forward, pivot ½ left, step right foot forward, pivot ½ left to end facing front wall
The second time you end up facing the front wall do the following (after count 56) 4 turns
RIGHT FORWARD, ¼ LEFT PIVOT TURN - 4X

1-4Step right foot forward, pivot ¼ left, Step right foot forward, pivot ¼ left
5-8Repeat 1-4 to end facing front wall
Start from the beginning of the dance, adding one extra side touch left (just to keep you thinking):
RIGHT SIDE TOUCH, RIGHT CROSS HITCH, RIGHT SIDE TOUCH, HOLD, LEFT SIDE TOUCH, LEFT CROSS HITCH, LEFT SIDE TOUCH, HOLD
1-2Touch right toes to right side, cross hitch right knee across body, touch right toes to right side, hold
&Step right foot together
5-6Touch left toes to left side, cross hitch left knee across body
7-8Touch left toes to left side, hold with weight remaining on right foot
9-12Hold, repeat 6-8
The third time you end up facing the front wall is the start of the grand finale. Think zero. This means NO TURNS, NO Big Deal (side touches) and hopefully NO problems doing this!! Because you will be dropping the Big Deal section altogether, you will end the pattern facing forward with the left jazz box (as per usual) but with your weight ending on RIGHT foot (the big surprise!). Start the dance again from count 9 (Real Deal - omitting the side touches) & dance until you drop (count 36 to be exact). Enjoy!

ONE FINAL NOTE
For a dynamite ending, after the right heel hook (counts 31-32), touch right toes to right side, cross hitch right knee, touch right toes to right side, hold.
