Circle left
Who wipes me off when I get gravy on my shirt
Who knows exactly where to kiss me when I hurt
Allemande the corner, turn thru and then
Left allemande the corner, weave the ring
Who's just as gentle as a sparrow in my hand
Dosado and now promenade again
Who's meaner than a junkyard dog fightin' for her man
You babe, you're my bestest friend

All four ladies chain across, couples 1 & 3 (2 & 4)
Promenade outside halfway around for me
Get down the middle square thru 4 hands you go
When you get there swing thru
Boys run around the girl, half tag, trade and roll
Swing the corner lady, promenade on home
Who's the only girl I'll ever love or understand
You babe, you're my bestest friend

Heads (sides) promenade halfway
Lead right, circle to a line
Pass the ocean, scoot back
Spin chain thru, boys circulate two
Swing and promenade
Who's the only girl I'll ever love and understand
You babe, you're my bestest friend

Circle left
Who holds me up when I get too drunk to stand
Who really believes she should stand beside her man
Allemande the corner, turn thru and then
Left allemande the corner, weave the ring
Who comes down to bail me out when I get in a jam
Dosado and now promenade again
Who helps me tell the police where I live and who I am
You babe, you're my bestest friend

Circle left
Who's always smilin', never acting cross
Who always says 'I done it' when everybody's lost
Allemande the corner, turn thru and then
Left allemande the corner, weave the ring
Who bravely puts up with my uncles and my aunts
Dosado and now promenade again
Who discretely whispers "you forgot to zip your pants"
You babe, you're my bestest friend
