REPEAT

**This dance is choreographed to go to the suggested music.
On the 5th & 10th repeats ( "..oh those steel guitars.."), omit the last 4 counts (hip bumps).
On the 7th repeat (instrumentals), omit steps 17-32 (leave in hip bumps). Sounds complicated, but the music tells you what to do.
The dance may also be done to many other 32-count music by leaving off the hip bumps at end. (Nice done to No-one - Chad Brock & Shirley Myers)
