Circle to the left
Now he was only 10 years old
When his daddy died in prison
His daddy's final words were son don't do no wrong
Left allemande that corner, come on back, swing the partner
Swing that lady, stay right there, sides face grand square
Promise me son not to do the things I've done
Walk away from trouble if you can
Now it won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
I hope you're old enough to understand

Now the head (side) 2 couples promenade, go 1/2 way round now
Come into the middle, touch 1/4, walk and dodge and then
Swing thru you know, let those boys run to the right now
You'll bend the line, get a right & left thru, turn the girl my friend
Slide thru, then square thru, 3/4 round the ring now
You swing the corner lady, promenade
Now it won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
I hope you're old enough to understand
