OPENER

Circle left
 I met a girl who sang the blues
    And I asked her for some happy news 
Allemande left your corner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande left and weave
 Bye, Bye Miss American Pie
    I drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
    And good old boys was drinking Whiskey and Rye
    Singing "This will be the day that I die" 

FIGURE (FIRST AND THIRD)

Heads square thru 4 hands you go
Around the corner with a dosado
Swing thru, boys run right
Bend the line and do a right & left thru
Flutterwheel across and now slide thru
Swing your corner lady and you promenade her too
 And teach me how to dance real slow 

FIGURE (SECOND AND FOURTH)

Heads square thru, 4 hands you go
Around the corner with a dosado
Swing thru and then, spin the top, my friend
Boys walk up and do the right and left thru
Square thru and go 3 hands you know
Swing the corner girl and promenade, let's go
 But the man there said the music would not play 

BREAK

Sides face, grand square
 And the 3 men I admire the most
    The Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost
    They caught the last train to the coast 
Allemande left and weave the ring
 Bye, Bye Miss American Pie
    I drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
    And good old boys was drinking Whiskey and Rye
    Singing "This will be the day that I die" 

CLOSER

Circle left
 Did you write the book of love
    Do you have faith in God above 
Allemande left your corner, turn your partner by the right
Allemande left and weave
 Bye, Bye Miss American Pie
    I drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
    And good old boys was drinking Whiskey and Rye
    Singing "This will be the day that I die"
