Sequence: AB, Tag 1, Modified A, BB, Tag 2, Halleluiah B, B

PART A

We adjust our clock so that the direction you are facing at the start of Part A is 12:00.

BRUSH-HITCH-STEPS, ½ TURN PIVOT

SIDE TOGETHER, CHASSE LEFT, ¼ TURN PIVOT TWICE
Now facing original 12:00
Styling: On the ¼ turns, roll your hips around to the left

"KNEE THANG", KICK-BALL-CHANGE, SLIDE FORWARD
Hands: During the knee "thang", put your elbows up and out to the sides, with the palms of both hands facing your ears, a few inches from your head. This is the "hear no evil" position.

"PULL THE ROPE" TWICE
Styling: During the "pull the rope" moves, turn your body diagonally to the right so your body is facing 1:30

SYNCOPATED JAZZ BOX, ¼ TURN SAILOR, STOMPS
As you are stepping right on count 6, square up your body toward 12:00 again

THAT'S THE END OF PART A

MODIFIED PART A

Same as Part A except slight changes to "knee thang" and "pull the rope".

The hands during the "Knee Thang", instead of the "hear no evil" position, do the "chill" motion:

Bring your hands down on count 5. But don't drop them down to the sides. Let them come down gently in front of your body until they are hanging downward somewhere around count 6.
In the "Pull The Rope" section, there is no longer any hand motion. The footwork changes to move you diagonally backward to the right.
You can do a little back body roll on this part if you like. On that last touch of the right foot, you might not want to go too far back because the next step is the syncopated jazz box where the right has to cross over the left. If you make it too far, you'll have a hard time getting it across.

THAT's THE END OF MODIFIED PART A

PART B

We now adjust our clock, so that the direction you are facing at the start of Part B is 12:00.

SIDE STEPS

1-4Step right to right side, hold, step left beside right, hold

THAT'S THE END OF PART B

HALLELUIAH B

"Halleluiah B" is exactly the same as Part B except for the styling during slow side steps with pelvis bumps. First of all, leave off the pelvis bumps. Next, eliminate the slowly rising arms by keeping your hands in the "raise the roof" position, extending both arms upward with elbows bent and palms upward, pushing up to straight elbows on each beat.

THAT'S THE END OF HALLELUIAH B
