Join your hands, circle left
You're gonna move it all the way round the ring
And when you're home 4 ladies chain across, and don't you dare get lost
Chain 'em right on back again, well, goodness, turn the boss
Your corner dosado, your partner left a dopaso
Partner left and corner right
Your partner left and find the corner, dosado
Come back and swing your honey, then you promenade her so
Down the Ohio
You're gonna swing her back in Ohio

Heads go forward up and back, a left hand star
Turn it round that old track
Your corner right, hey, turn 'em around
Your partner left, turn her around
4 little ladies want to chain, go straight across that town
Your corner dosado, your partner left
Let's make an allemande thar, the men you'd better star
Slip the clutch, turn the corner left, go all the way around
Walk right by a brand new corner, promenade the next one
Down the Ohio
You're gonna swing her back in Ohio

Join your hands, circle left
You're gonna move it all the way round the ring
And when you're home 4 ladies chain across, and don't you dare get lost
Chain 'em right on back again, well, goodness, turn the boss
Your corner dosado, your partner left
Let's make an allemande thar, the men you'd better star
Slip the clutch, left allemande, go right & left grand
Hand over hand until you meet her, promenade again
Down the Ohio
You're gonna bow back in Ohio
