In the nearby neighbourhood
In the nearby neighbourhood
in the nearby neighbourhood
in the nearby neighbourhood
two girls love me
two girls love me
in the nearby neighbourhood
in the nearby neighbourhood
But I, but I,
But I, but I,
but I long for somebody else,
but I long for somebody else,
but I long for somebody else,
but I long for somebody else,
a mermaid by the beach
a mermaid by the beach
A holy cross necklace,
A holy cross necklace,
a holy cross necklace,
a holy cross necklace,
where can I find, so I may send it to her,
where can I find, so I may send it to her,
a holy cross necklace
a holy cross necklace
A necklace, a necklace,
A necklace, a necklace,
a necklace to protect her
a necklace to protect her
a necklace to protect her,
a necklace to protect her,
even though she doesn't love me
even though she doesn't love me

Here is an excellent video from Lilly Sell, a UK Circle Dance teacher who was first introduced to Circle Dancing in Perth Australia, and then later joined the first Circle Dancing teacher training course run by Judy King. In this video she leads this dance giving clear step by step instructions, then performing the dance in her lovely studio.
