Left allemande the corner, then dosado your own
Go back and swing the corner and keep her for your own
Now join your hands and circle, go walking round the hall
You allemande left with the corner again, grand right & left you all
Go right and left around the set until you meet again
Now box the gnat and change hands, left allemande and then
Come back and promenade her, foot loose and fancy free
Gonna dance awhile in Texas style where the bloom is on the sage

FIGURE   

The head two couples swing while the side couples arch
The heads go right, sides go left, dip and dive you march
Go over then go under, it's right on home you go
Head ladies chain out to the right, you turn this girl you know
Now all four ladies chain and you turn 'em over there
You chain 'em right on back again and promenade this square
You'll promenade this lady, go dancin' home for me
Let's dance awhile California style where the bloom is on the sage
