Ballin' The Jack


First you put your two knees close up tight
 -7   -7  -6* -6*  -5    6    -7  -6*  -5

You sway 'em to the left, and then you sway 'em to the right
 -3  -5   -5  6  -5  -6    -5   6  -5   -6   3   6  -4  -5

Step around the floor kinda nice and light
  5   5 -5   5    6   -5  5   7   6    5

And then you twist around, twist around with all of your might
 5   -5   5    -7  7* -7     7  -6*  7    3  -3   5  -6    6
 
Stretch your lovin' arms way out in space
  -7     -7  -7  7*  -7  -7  -7  -6*  -5

You do the Eagle Rock with such style and grace
-5  -5 -5  6  -5  -6   -5    6   -6    6   -5

You put your left foot out and then you bring it back
 6  -6   7    7   -6*   7   7   7*  -7   -7   6   -5

That's what I call "Ballin' the Jack"
  7    -7  -7*  8    -7  -6   7  -6
