Sides face grand square
You've been too gone for too long
It's too late to come back now
It's been so long since you walked out my door
Now you're just an old song nobody sings anymore
Four ladies chain that ring, turn that girl and then
You chain 'em back and promenade
You've been too gone for too long
Now it's too late to come back home

Heads square thru four hands around you do
Then make a right hand star
The heads star left and turn it one time you go
To the same outside two right and left thru you know
Roll away and then, turn thru my friend
Left allemande and promenade
You've been too gone for too long
Now it's too late to come back home

Four ladies chain that ring, you turn that girl and then
You roll away and circle left around
Four ladies roll away you circle once more
You do a left allemande and weave around that old floor
I had a good cry when you said goodbye
Swing and promenade on home
You've been too gone for too long
Now it's too late to come back home

(End last figure for sides with:)
So why don't you just sides face grand square

You came a long way goin' the wrong way
Don't ever set your suitcase down
You wanted to roam, now you're paying the bill
You're an old rolling stone who rolled over the hill
Four ladies chain that ring, turn that girl and then
You chain 'em back and promenade
You've been too gone for too long
Now it's too late to come back home
