3&4Side rock R - Step RF to RS with weight transfer (3), replace weight into LF (&), Cross RF over LF (4)
5,6,7,8 2pivot turns LF leading; step LF forward (5) turn ½ around shifting weight into RF (6), step LF forward (7), turn ½ around shifting weight into RF (8)
Section D – 8 counts / Press Recover Steps, Rock RF forward, Triple RLR
&1&2&Press recover steps - Press weight slightly into LF (&) Press RF forward (1), recover weight into LF (&), press RF back (2), recover weight into LF (&),

Section E – 8 counts / LF forward, Paddle Clockwise ¾, Paddle counterclockwise ½, paddle counterclockwise a ½; clap R, L, R, L
1,2Press LF forward (1), paddle turn clockwise over RS a ¾ turn; left hip is facing 9:00, upper body facing 12:00 (2)
3,4paddle turn counter-clockwise ½ turn , left hip facing 3:00, upper body facing 6:00 (3), paddle counter-clockwise ½ turn left hip facing 9:00, upper body returned to 12:00 (4)
5,6Clap hands together to the R upper quadrant (5), clap hands together to the L upper quadrant (6)
7,8clap hands together to the R lower quadrant (7), clap hands together to the L lower quadrant (8)
Section F – 4 counts / 1.5 turn over 4 counts
1,2spin 1.5 times around over RS by stepping LF forward (1), continue moving forward while stepping RF back to turn ½ (2)
3,4step LF forward (3), turn ½ by stepping RF back (4) facing 6:00 now in alternate contra line
Repeat sequence as mentioned above. Each chorus is the exact same. Each verse will remove one section all the way through the dance.
Have fun! There are so many ways you can customize this and added flare and sass😊
