Sides face, grand square
He was born in the summer of his twenty seventh year
Coming home to a place he'd never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key to every door
Allemande and weave
Colorado Rocky Mountain high
Swing the girl around and promenade
Sitting round the campfire and everybody's high
Rocky Mountain high, in Colorado

Heads left square thru four hands will do
Meet the sides and make a left hand star
Heads star by the right and go, once around you go
Back to the corner girl, see saw, make a left hand wave
Left swing thru, girls will trade
Girls run left and promenade
Shadow from the starlight, softer than a lullaby
Rocky Mountain high, in Colorado
