Join your hands and circle round that big old ring
Get on home, remember, boys you don't have time to swing
1 & 3 lead to the right, circle round that track
Head gents break to make a line, go walkin' up and back
Pass thru, fold the ends, you star thru and then
Bend the line and cross trail, your corners allemande
Come back one and promenade and don't you dare be slow
Get on home and swing with your Mexican Joe

All 4 ladies chain across, turn the girls and then
Same 4 ladies chain right back you turn 'em left again
1 & 3 lead to the right, circle 1/2 the town
Dive thru, swing thru go one time around
Box the gnat, and square thru 3 hands round you go
Swing that corner lady and then you promeno
Dancing, romancing, always on the go
Get on home and swing with your Mexican Joe
