Seven Spanish Angels (LM274)   Don Wood

 

Sides Face Grand Square

He looked down into her brown eyes and said say a prayer for me,

she through her arms around him whispered god will keep us free.

They heard the riders coming knew this was his last fight

Allemande Left and Weave the ring tonight

There were seven Spanish angels at the alter of the sun,

they were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun,

when the battle stopped and the smoke cleared

there was thunder from the throne and

seven Spanish angels took another angel home

FIGURE

Heads promenade your lady half way round the hall

walk to the middle and square thru four hands round you all,

four hand around here’s where you do the right and left thru,

turn my girl why don’t you do an 8 chain 2.

Touch ¼ Scootback one time for me

Swing the corner girl and promenade you see

When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared

there was thunder from the throne and

seven Spanish angels took another angel home

 

MIDDLE BREAK

4 Ladies promenade once to the middle of the ring,

come along back and give your cowboy a swing

Join hands and circle left go movin’ round in time

Allemande Left your corner girl and weave on down the line.

There were seven Spanish angels at the alter of the sun,

they were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun,

when the battle stopped and the smoke cleared

there was thunder from the throne

and seven Spanish angels took another angel home

 

CLOSER

Sides Face Grand Square

She reached down and picked the gun up that lay smoking in his hand,

said father please forgive me I can’t make it with our my man.

She knew the gun was empty and she knew she couldn’t win,

her final prayer was answered

Allemande Left and Weave again

There were seven Spanish angels at the alter of the sun,

they were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun,

when the battle stopped and the smoke cleared

there was thunder from the throne and

seven Spanish angels took another angel home
