Hideaway Cha  
Choreographers: Joanne Brady, Jamie Davis, Jo Thompson
Description: 32 count, 4 wall line dance, intermediate level
Music: "Dance With Me" by Debelah Morgan
  "Some Things Never Change" by Tim McGraw
  "You Ain't Hurt Nothin' Yet" by John Anderson
  "It Must Be Love" by Alan Jackson
  "Something To Write Home About" by Craig Morgan
 
Note: The dance works best if you start after 8 counts on the word "dance". If not, you can wait 40 counts and then start. The song is not perfectly phrased, but the syncopated sailors will go with words "and dance the night away" almost every time. This song is based on the classic melody "Hernando's Hideaway", thus the name of the dance.
