Sides face, grand square
If I was a staggerwing plane, a staggerwing painted red
I'd fly over to your house, baby, buzz you in your bed
If I was a taperwing, a taperwing painted blue
I'd be barrel-rolling
Allemande left and weave the ring
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Swing and promenade
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Let me be your rider now

Heads square thru in the middle and you get four hands and go
Round your corner lady you do a little dosado
You swing thru, give me two by two and spin the top for me
Boys move up and then square thru 3
Courtesy turn your lady there
Slide thru, swing the girl and promenade her
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Let me be your rider now

Sides face, grand square
If I was a Fender guitar, a Fender painted red
You could play me, darling, until your fingers bled
If I was one of them Gibsons, like a '58 or '9
You could plug me in and play me anytime
Circle left
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Swing and promenade
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Let me be your rider now

Sides face, grand square
If I was a motorcycle, a Vincent Red Rapide
I'd ride around to your house, baby, get you up to speed
If I was a short track racer, I'd be an Indian
You could ride me around and ride me round again
Circle left
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Swing and promenade
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Let me be your rider now

Allemande left and swing
You're gonna need a rider anyhow
Let me be your rider now
