Heads lead right and circle round the track
Make a line, you go walkin' up and back
Star thru, pass thru, trade by and
Dosado once around then do the right & left thru
Why don't you dive thru, then pass thru, then pass thru again
Swing that corner gal around and join hands and circle to the left
Circle left til you're home, the cutest one is your own
We'll entertain you all night long
