Allemande left the corner, turn a right hand round your own
Wrong way thar, the men back in tonight
Spread that star way out wide, box the gnat and pull by
Allemande left with the corner, and you weave around the ring
Weave it in and out you go, down the Ohio
Dosado your partner, and you promenade her home *What'll we do on a Saturday night, down the Ohio
Kiss the girls in the pale moonlight, down the Ohio
FIGURE
The head 2 couples promenade, you go halfway around
Lead to the right and circle to a line
Go forward 8 and back, and do a right & left thru
Turn your girl, pass thru, move on to the next, cross trail
Go to the corner, allemande left, come home and dosado
Then you take your corner, and you promenade her home *I don't know, but I've been told, down the Ohio
All that glitters can't be gold, down the Ohio
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Now if I die in Arkansas, down the Ohio
Ship me collect to my mother-in-law, down the Ohio
*All I want to keep me happy, down the Ohio
*I've got a gal who's six feet tall, down the Ohio
*The cow went dry, the hen won't lay, down the Ohio
*Now you get a hammer and I'll get a saw, down the Ohio
