Circle left
I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
The men star right and go one time around
Left allemande and you weave
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

Heads promenade, halfway around and then you square thru 4
Go all the way, swing thru and then, boys trade, boys you run
Bend the line, star thru
Pass thru and you trade by
Swing your corner lady, promenade I cry
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

Circle left
I pushed my soul in a deep, dark hole
And then I followed it in
The men star right and go one time around
Left allemande and you weave
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

Circle left
Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters
On a dead end sign
The men star right and go one time around
Left allemande and you weave
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
