Join hands, make a ring, circle left go full around
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you (all the way round)
Those heads a left square thru 4 hands around you do
Find that corner, allemande and weave the ring (come on now)
Move in and out around you go, meet your partner do a dosado
Go back to back, go once around, that corner allemande
You come back one and promenade
You walk and talk and tell that maid
Hello, Mary Lou, goodbye heart

1 & 3 you promenade, go halfway round and swing that maid
Sides a right & left thru and turn the girl
Well, the four little ladies chain, you turn 'em half sashay
Join hands, circle up 8 around that ring (circle to the left)
Those corners all left allemande, walk right in to a right & left grand
Hand over hand until you meet your girl, promenade
Hey, promenade go full around, walk that lady right up town
Hello, Mary Lou, goodbye heart
