Four ladies promenade inside around that ring
Home you go and swing ol' partner around I sing
Allemande your corner then curlique at home
Boys run right, left allemande, gonna weave tonight
It's in and out, around you go and when you meet your own
Dosado and promenade
Oh, she's a cousin of mine, a cousin of mine
Just a kissin' cousin of mine

Why don't those heads (sides) square thru four hands around
Hey, with that corner girl get a right & left thru you know
Then swing thru two by two, boys run right
Then half tag, trade and roll, move it around tonight
Swing ol' corner girl waiting for you there
Left allemande then promenade that square
Oh, she's a cousin of mine, a cousin of mine
Just a kissin' cousin of mine

Why don't those heads (sides) square thru four hands around
Dosado make an ocean wave you know
Then recycle and go on round
When you're there swing thru
The boys trade, boys run, then wheel & deal
Swing ol' corner and promenade
Oh, she's a cousin of mine, a cousin of mine
Just a kissin' cousin of mine
