Circle left
The preacher talked to me and he smiled
Said, come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile
Allemande the corner girl, come home a dosado
Allemande the corner by the hall and you weave around that ring
I've got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

Head couples square thru and you get four hands you know
Everybody make a right hand star and turn it once you know
Heads star left in the middle and you go just halfway
To the other side and a right & left thru, turn the girl that way
Veer to the left and the couples circulate
Half tag and swing a little corner and you promenade
Oh I've got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on

Circle left
I told him I'm in no hurry
But if I broke her heart, then won't you tell her I'm sorry
Allemande the corner girl, come home a dosado
Allemande the corner by the hall and you weave around that ring
I've got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

Four ladies chain across you gotta turn there with that girl
You're gonna rollaway, now circle left around that world
Four ladies gonna rollaway, circle awhile
Allemande the corner by the hall, weave that ring
I've got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on
