REPEAT
TAG
When using the Martina McBride song insert this 4-count tag that I call "Rock the Baby". After two repetitions of the dance you will be facing the front. With feet slightly apart
| 1-4 | Sway left, right, left, right |
Then start the dance from beginning
ENDING
Toward the end of the song, the beat slows down a bit, slow down with it. You will be facing the back when there is a slight pause after she sings "daughter's". Pause and then continue with the left side step (count 5 of the night club 2 basics) on the word "eyes". On the last beat of the song, you will finish facing the side with a large step to the left (count 5 of the cross sweeps)
