*Four lassies promenade, you take a walk on the high road
Go back swing your laddie, he's a fine one
Join hands and you circle, go walking round the ring
You allemande left your corner and weave around the ring
Oh ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low
Swing with your girl and promenade her
Never more to roam, go walking round you go
on the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*4 boys promenade and take your bagpipes with you, boy

*4 wee laddies promenade and take a haggis with you, boy

FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

Heads square thru, go four hands around the set
Meet your corner, and do the right & left thru you bet
Veer to the left, ferris wheel around you know
The heads slide apart, and let the sides square thru
Go! Four hands around, heads star thru
Swing the corner girl and promenade her
Promenade back home with this bonnie, bonnie lass
You promenade your lady 'till morning
