Circle left
I got a crow to pick with you
Ever since the last time that the feathers flew
Well those men star right, roll it once around and go
Allemande that corner, well you weave around the ring
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You swing the lady round, you gonna promenade I cry
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry

Heads square thru you get 4 in the middle you do
With the outside two a right hand star, turn it once and go
Heads star left in the middle roll it around the ring
The same two go right & left thru and turn the girl I sing
Veer to the left and ferris wheel, just the boys veer left
Girls pass thru, swing that corner, promenade
Oh, tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry

Well the four ladies promenade get a walkin' inside the ring
Get on home and swing your man, everybody swing
You join hands, circle to the left get a movin' round you go
Left allemande that corner, well you weave around that ring
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You swing the lady round, well you promenade I cry
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry
