Oh, y' allemande left that corner girl, and around the ring you go
It's a grand ol' right & left, boys, walk on the heel and toe
Gonna dosado with your pretty little maid, now bow real nice and promenade
I'm a ding dong daddy from Dumas, y'oughtta see me dumastuff!

FIGURE (4 times through, alternate heads (sides) / heads (sides))

The head two ladies chain across, you turn 'em twice around
And when you've turned, you lead to the right and circle half the town
Now dive to the middle and turn your own, with a right hand round and on you roam
It's corners all with a left hand swing, and star right back in the middle of the ring
It's first and third in a right hand star, and now you're goin' to town
Come back by the left and turn your corner, by the right hand once around
Then partners all you swing and whirl, round and round with the dear little girl
Allemande left and stomp your feet, then head out down the street
It's a ding dong right and a ding dong left, git along around that square
Dosado your ding dong duzie, right shoulders round her there
Gonna see saw round your corner maid, now take your honey and promenade
I'm a ding dong daddy from Dumas, y'oughtta see me dumastuff!

It's a ding dong right and a ding dong left, go all the way round that square
It's a right and left back home, boys, don't stop 'til you get there
Gonna meet your honey with a dosado, then take 'er in your arms and around you go
Gonna swing that gal from Dumas, your pretty little powder puff
