Allemande left, allemande thar, forward 2 and star
Boys back in you've got a back-up star
Shoot the star, full turn around,
right to the partner and pull on by
Allemande left and weave that ring
May the circle be unbroken
dosado once around and promenade
May the circle be unbroken in the sky, Lord, in the sky

Heads square thru 4 hands around the ring
Meet the sides and do the right & left thru
You curlique and then follow your neighbor my friend
Take a peek and trade the wave
You swing thru, boys trade and then turn thru
Left allemande come back and promenade
(1) I'll wash my face in the mornin' dew and then I'll be travellin' along
(End of 2nd figure:) Sides face grand square

(2) I've laid around and played around this old town too long and it looks like I've gotta travel on

(3) Yankee Doodle went to London just to ride the ponies, I am a Yankee Doodle boy

(4) Oh the line forms on the right "Babe" now that Mackie's back in town

I'm dancin' on top of the world, just rolling along and singing a song
I'm quitting the blues of the world, just rolling along and singing a song(Circle left)
I just phoned the parson, hey par' get ready to call
Allemande that corner, promenade that hall
I'm dancin' on top of the world, just rolling along and singing a song

Circle left
And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain
Walk around that corner, see saw your own
Men star right of which I'm certain
Allemande the corner, come back a dosado
Left allemande and promenade her
But more much more than this, I did it my way

Just bow to the partner, corner too
Thank 'em all we're through...
