Sides face, grand square
Why are the stars always winkin' and blinkin' above?
What makes a fella start thinkin' of fallin' in love?
It's not the season, the reason is plain as the moon
It's just Elmer's tune
Four ladies promenade, go one time inside that old ring
Come back, swing and whirl your man around then promenade I sing
It's not the season, the reason is plain as the moon
It's just Elmer's tune

Heads (sides) square thru go four hands around that old floor
And when you meet the sides (heads) turn a right hand star of four
Full around so the heads (sides) can star left in the middle of the set
Come back to the same two you left
You'll single circle, rear back, star thru, and turn to face
Swing and whirl this corner then promenade this place
It's not the season, the reason is plain as the moon
It's just Elmer's Tune

Sides face, grand square
Listen, listen
There's a lot you're liable to be missin'
Sing it; swing it
Any old time and any old way
Four ladies promenade go one time inside that old ring.
Come back swing and whirl your man around, then promenade I sing
*What puts the kick in a chicken, the magic of June?
It's just Elmer's tune
