Sides face, grand square
Give me twenty-five red roses
For the sweetest girl in town
And I'll tell you sir a story
How she turned my life around
Left allemande, turn the partner right
Left allemande and promenade
Give me twenty-five red roses
For the sweetest girl tonight

Heads (sides) promenade go half way
Sides (heads) do the right & left thru
Square thru and count to four hands
Dosado and eight chain four
She stood right there beside me
Swing the lady, promenade
Give me twenty-five red roses
For the sweetest girl in town

Four ladies chain across and turn 'em
You roll away and circle to the left
Four ladies roll away and circle
Left allemande and weave the ring
She took a man who'd lost everything
Swing your lady promenade
Give me twenty-five red roses
Cause she means the world to me
