OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Walk around your corner, see saw round your taw
All join hands and circle round the hall
Chain those flirty, flirty girls with their flirty, flirty eyes
Then swing the corner gal, I'll tell ya why
Gents star left and walk around the inside
You'll dosado then corner swing and whirl
Why don't ya promenade this honey til ya get back home
Then take her in your arms and swing and whirl

FIGURE   

Allemande left your corner, home ya go and swing
Then promenade your lady round the ring
Gals star right, the gents go on, it's twice around the town
Ya meet your little lady left hand round
Now turn your corner right, your partner left hand
And corners promenade around the land
I don't want a paper doll that cannot dance and whirl
I'd rather swing a gorgeous real live girl, yeah man


ALTERNATE LYRICS

Paper dolls that cannot dance won't do us guys much good
Give us the kind that swing the way they should, you bet

These paper dolls are different than the writer said
I'd rather swing a real, live girl instead, that's so

No matter what the guy that wrote the song might say
I'd rather swing a real, live girl all day, hey, hey
