Allemande left your corner, turn your partner right
Men star left around you go
Swing your partner once around, four ladies promenade
Inside around the big old ring you go, turn thru
Allemande left your corner, grand old right and left
Grand old right and left around you go, promenade
Lips sweeter than julep, oh, she wore a tulip
And you wore a big red rose

Heads square on thru, four hands around you go
Corner lady curlique you know, walk and dodge
Partner trade, and then two ladies chain my friend
Turn the girls, it's up and back you go, slide thru
Allemande that corner, dosado your partner
Swing the corner lady, promenade
You made life cheery, when you called me dearie
Down where the blue grass grows

Head two gents and the corner move up to the middle and back
Right to the opposite, box the gnat you go, right and left thru
Back right out and make a ring, circle left I sing
Circle left around the ring you go
Those who can, left allemande, the rest roll away, go right & left grand,
Grand old right and left you know, promenade
Promenade your dearie, for she makes life cheery
Down where the blue grass grows
