4 ladies chain that ring, turn a girl get around and then
Roll the girl a half sashay, circle left get around that way
4 ladies rollaway, circle left get around that ring
Allemande the corner of the hall, hey, you gonna weave that ring
Puppet on a string and his name is Moe
He's got a little puppy that he loves so
You swing your girl and then promenade get around the ring
He's always got a smile and, oh, it shows
He draws a crowd to see his shows
Lots of fun everywhere he goes
That's why they love little Pirogue Joe

Heads square thru in the middle and you count 'em 4 get around that ring
Hey, find the corner now, you dosado get around I sing
Swing thru tonight, you spin the top that's right
Boys you move up and now, do the right & left thru and turn somehow
Square thru and you count 'em three, lookin' for the corner lady she
You swing that girl and then promenade get around and then
He's always got a smile and, oh, it shows
He draws a crowd to see his shows
Lots of fun everywhere he goes
That's why they love little Pirogue Joe
