Sides face, grand square
*Well, all around the water tank, just a waiting for a train
*A thousand miles away from home
*When you're there, everybody swing
Left allemande, a dosado, men star left and go
Turn thru at home, left allemande, now you swing and you promenade
Well, that big 8 wheelers, gonna roll me on down the line (or yodel)

*I walked up to that ole brakeman, just to hand him a line of talk
*He said if you got money boy
*At home, swing don't walk

*They kicked me off in Texas, a state I dearly love
*The wide open spaces all around me
*At home you swing your love

Now 1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru 4 hands
Round that corner, you dosado
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Wheel & deal and do the right & left thru
Dive in, square thru 3/4 round
Swing that corner waitin' there, promenade
A thousand miles away from home
Just a waitin' for a train

Now 1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru 4 hands
Round that corner, you dosado
Spin chain thru, boys work across
Girls circulate and go, turn thru
Left allemande, then swing this girl
Promenade a full turn
A thousand miles away from home
Just a waitin' for a train
