Sides face grand square
Four ladies promenade inside that old ring
Get back home and give your man a swing
Join hands, circle left go walkin' and then
Left allemande and you weave that ring
Though I love rock and roll, the acoustic guitar
Was the only way I had of becoming a star
I'm doing real nice and traveling around
But they won't play my record in my old home town

Head (side) couples square thru four
Dosado that corner one
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Ferris wheel and the centers pass thru
Single circle, rare back, star thru and roll
Swing that corner lady and you all promenade
When we get to cookin', something's still wrong
There's still something missing from this good old song

Sides face grand square
If I had a saxophone, a big baritone
Cleaning up the muddy breaks
If I had a saxophone, I could get some recognition
Left allemande and weave that ring
If we had saxophones
Swing that girl and promenade
If we had saxophones
I could make this joint shimmy
Like a big California earthquake

Sides face grand square
If I had a saxophone, a big baritone
Cleaning up the muddy breaks
If I had a saxophone, I could get some recognition
From that Mobile, Alabama D.J.
Four girls promenade
Swing that girl and promenade
If we had saxophones
I could make this joint shimmy
Like a big California earthquake
