Sides face grand square
Three thirty in the morning, not a soul in sight
The city's lookin' like a ghost town on a moonless summer night
Raindrops on the windshield, there's a storm moving in
He's headin' back from somewhere
Allemande left and weave the ring
The thunder rolls and the lightnin' strikes
Swing your baby, promenade tonight
As the storm blows on out of control
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls

The heads promenade the girl halfway 'round the ring
Walk right in and square thru 4, four hands 'round I sing
Go all the way and then you do the right & left thru
Veer left and then ferris wheel that's what you do
Square thru 3, three quarter long
Swing your baby promenade her home
As the storm blows on out of control
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls

Sides face grand square
She's waitin' by the window, when he pulls into the drive
She rushes out to hold him, thankful he's alive
But on the wind and rain, a strange new perfume blows
And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes
Allemande left and weave the ring
The thunder rolls and the lightnin' strikes
*Swing your baby, promenade tonight
*(A love grows cold - on a sleepless night)
As the storm blows on out of control
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls

Sides face grand square
She runs back down the hallway, to the bedroom door
She reaches for the pistol, kept in the dresser drawer
Tells the lady in the mirror, he won't do this again
'cause tonight will be the last time she'll wonder where he's been
Well 4 ladies promenade walking along
Swing with your girl and promenade
As the storm blows on out of control
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls
