Circle Left
* This is the story of Dolores,
Deep in the forest of Africa.
Allemande Left with the corner lady, Turn the partner by the right.
Allemande Left with the corner of the hall,,
A-oomba, chaka-chaka, and Weave tonight.
You Swing your lady ‘round and then you’re gonna Promenade now.
A-oomba, chaka-chaka.
A-oomba, chaka-chaka, cha-cha-cha.
FIGURE
Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
A-oomba, chaka-chaka.
A-oomba, chaka-chaka, cha-cha-cha.
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
Chaka chaka he’s dancing with Dolores,
In the deepest forest down in Africa.
This is the story never ending,
Of understanding for one and all.
