I've always called this dance to "Buffalo Gals", which is very
recognizable, and people can sing the chorus. I'm thinking of a circle
mixer dance, is this the same one that you want to call?
The dance I call requires a "short" tune, just AB, rather than AABB, so
it depends on your version of the dance.

"This Old Man" works fine, and I often fall back on that if I am
working
with a band that isn't prepared to play Jenny Lind
(a personal
favorite).
"This Old Man" is easy and everyone knows it!
If you are working with
musicians who can pull it off, try requesting a change in key (up),
every
time they notch up the tempo!
