Sides face grand square
Don't you cry, don't you moan
Hang your head down all night long
That ole feeling sure ain't nothing new
Allemande left and weave
It's in your walk, it's in your talk
There's only one way to shake it off
You got to get to it before it gets to you

Heads square thru 4 hands you go
Find the corner there, do a dosado
Now swing thru and then boys run right
Ferris wheel on in, centers pass thru
Touch 1/4 now scoot back
Swing, swing the corner there and promenade the square
Cuz everybody knows that the blues don't like to dance

Sides face grand square
(Music Interlude 32 beats)
Allemande left and you weave
There's only one thing I've found
Swing and promenade around
The blues can't do no business on
The honky tonk side of town

***Alternate Lyrics Middle Break

You gotta slip, you gotta slide
They're gonna try to nail your hide
Allemande left, turn your partner right
Allemande left and weave the ring
So put a quarter in that jukebox, let it down
The blues can't do no business
On a honky tonk side of town

Sides face grand square
So put a quarter in that Jukebox and let it drop
Put another one in, play it again don't let it stop
Allemande left and weave
There's only one thing I've found
Swing and promenade around
The blues can't do no business on
The honky tonk side of town

Allemande and swing
The blues can't do no business
On the honky tonk side of town
