Join hands, make a ring, circle left and hear me sing
Left allemande, come home with a dosado
Men star by the right and then, once around that big old land
Left allemande, you weave around that ring
No one here can love or understand me
You dosado and promenade you see
Make my bed, light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird bye-bye

Now 1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru 4 hands around the ring you do
All the way around and do a dosado
Swing thru, go two by two, girls fold you do
Peel off, wheel & deal and then a right & left thru
Dive thru, square thru 3/4 round
Swing your corner and promenade the ring
*Make my bed, light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird bye-bye

Now 1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru 4 hands around the ring you do
All the way around and do a dosado
Swing thru, go two by two, boys run to the right you do
Wheel & deal and then a right & left thru
Dive thru, square thru 3/4 round
Swing your corner and promenade the ring
*Make my bed, light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird bye-bye
