Sides face grand square
Black and orange stray cat sittin' on a fence
Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent
Allemande left and weave
I'm flat broke, but I don't care
Swing and promenade
I'm flat broke, but I don't care
I strut right by with my tail in the air

Head couples promenade halfway around
Lead right and circle to a line
Everybody do a right & left thru and turn that lady there
Pass thru, wheel & deal from there
Swing thru and box the gnat
You pull her by, swing that corner girl and promenade
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man
Get my dinner from a garbage can

Sides face grand square
I don't bother chasin mice around
I slink down the alley lookin' for a fight
Howlin' to the moon on a hot summer night
Allemande left and weave
Singin' the blues while the lady cats cry
Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy
I wish I could be as carefree and wild
But I got cat class and I got cat style
