OPENER - CLOSER
Circle left
Well I was born about 10 thousand years ago
There ain't nothing in this world that I don't know
Left allemande the corner, turn your partner by the right
Left allemande and weave around tonight
Yeah, I was born about 10 thousand years ago
Dosado around your own and promenade
I saw Peter, Paul & Moses playing ring around the roses
I can lick the guy that says it isn't so
FIGURE
Well those heads (sides) square thru 4 hands around you go
Gonna split the sides in a line of 4
Dance up to the middle and back
You star thru, Ca. twirl, and then swing thru
Those boys run to the right and bend the line (sweep 1/4)
Slide thru, square thru 3/4 round
Now swing that corner and promenade
I saw Jonah swallow the whale & dance with the lion's tail
And I crossed over Canaan on a log

I saved King David's life & he offered me a wife
I said now you're talking business, have a chair
