God Blessed Texas                                             

Choreographed by Shirley K. Batson                                       

Description:  

 32 count, 2 wall, beginner line dance

 “God Blessed Texas” by Little Texas

Note :   

 The choreographer specifies that the introduction of the dance starts after you hear one phrase of The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You and then only after waiting another 16 counts. While waiting to start dancing the introduction, you need to ignore a few grace notes and only count the main beat. Regardless of the length of the various recorded introductions, the main dance must start with the vocals.
