Sides face grand square
What are ya doin' tonight?
Ya got no place to go
Gotta get out of the city
Why don't you come along
Allemande left and weave the ring
Down by the lazy river
Come as you please
Down by the lazy river
Come along and dance with me

Heads (Sides) square thru it's four hands
Meet the sides (heads) make a right hand star
Heads (Sides) star left one time around
To the same pair right & left thru
Swing thru and then swing thru again
Swing your corner girl and promenade
Down by the lazy river
Come along and dance with me

Sides face grand square
Down by the lazy river
Come as you please
Down by the lazy river
One big family
Allemande and weave
If you're all alone
You won't be long
Just bring your guitar and sing your song
Down by the lazy river
Come along and dance with me
