Allemande left your corner girl, allemande right your own
Gents star it's once around you roam, dosado round your pretty little taw
Box the gnat there with her paw, ladies star left go once around the hall
Turn your partner right hand round, turn your corner left hand round
Grand old right & left around, when you meet this pretty little maid
Take her by the hand and promenade
She's rockin' the polka with you

Join hands and circle left, you do a little polka step
The other way back single file, dance with a smile
Head gents lead a backtrack, follow the leader round the backtrack
Join all hands and circle awhile, swing the corner of the hall
1 & 3 here's your call, cross trail thru and swing that corner around
And when you're through with swingin', promenade that gal in gingham
She's rockin' the polka with you
