4 ladies chain, across you go, turn the girl and go, man, go
Chain right back, do a dopaso, her by the left, round the corner go
Here, chickie-chickie-chickie, peckin' out dough
Partner left, make an allemande thar, right hand in, got a right hand star
Back up, around the land, slip the clutch, left allemande
Grand right & left you go, hand over hand, go, man, go
Dosado, don't be afraid, step in to a promenade
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin'
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin' bread
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin'
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin' bread

Heads lead to the right you know, circle to a line you go
Up to the middle and back with you, and then do a right & left thru
Turn that girl and roll away, up to the middle and back I say
Star thru, then u-turn back, right & left, go round the track
Hand over hand, around you fly, partner right and pull her by
Swing with the next, around you go, promenade and go, man, go
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin'
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin' bread
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin'
Mammi's little baby loves shortnin' bread
