Circle left
It's almost summer, I can't wait to go
Diggin' my toes in the sand
Men star right, go rollin' round one time
Left allemande and weave the ring
Spending long summer days soaking up some rays
To the sound of a reggae band
Crazy things that we do, may not matter to you
It's just a wonderful waste of time

Heads square thru and go you know
Dosado that corner one
Swing thru, and then spin the top
Move up and do the right & left thru
You're gonna square thru and go three hands around
Swing that girl and promenade
Spending time on the shore, I'd like to do it some more
It's just a wonderful waste of time

Circle left
Kicking back on the beach, with my lover in reach
Holding her hand in mine
Men star right, go rollin' round one time
Left allemande and weave the ring
Oh my baby looks good, I know she would
And I'm so glad that she's mine
I'm gonna kiss her again, while the waves roll in
It's just a wonderful waste of time

Sides square thru and go you know
Dosado that corner one
Swing thru, and then spin the top
Move up and do the right & left thru
You're gonna square thru and go three hands around
Swing that girl and promenade
I'm gonna kiss her again, while the waves roll in
It's just a wonderful waste of time

Circle left
I'll tell you, my friend, I'd like to do it again
There's no reason or rhyme
Men star right, go rollin' round one time
Left allemande and weave the ring.
Oh we're dancing to China on the beach in Carolina
Swing your girl and promenade
I'm gonna kiss her again, while the waves roll in
It's just a wonderful waste of time
