Circle left *Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
Walk around your corner, see saw around your taw
You do a left allemande, weave around the ring, you're gone He could boogie woogie, rock and roll all night long
Swing your honey round, promenade 'em along Singing, go, by by Johnny be good
FIGURE
Heads square thru and get me 4 hands you go
Round the corner lady do the dosado
Swing thru and then, boys run right my friend
Couples circulate a notch and wheel & deal and then
Pass thru, trade by, swing the corner girl
Do a left allemande, promenade around the world Singing, go, by by Johnny be good

*He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Sit beneath the trees by the railroad track
