from Bob Ruff, “Gentle on my Mind” on Wagon Wheel 911:
All join hands, circle, you Circle to the Left now
All the way around that ring you go
You Circle to the Right, the other way around
All the way until you’re home and then
With your Partner Dosado, your Partner Swing
Swing your partner round and Promenade

BREAK from Bob Ruff, “Hey Lei Lee” on Wagon Wheel 914
Ladies promenade inside the ring, hey lei lee lei lee lo
Come on back and your partner swing, hey lei lee lei lee lo
Join hands and circle left, go walkin’ round the set
All the way around you go and you get back home on a heel and toe
Allemande left with the corner girl, your partner swing and whirl
Swing the partner round and round, promenade and everybody sing

FIGURE from Dick Jones, “Mountain Music” on Top 25304
(Heads) to the middle and come on back, forward again and you Circle Left
Once around inside that ring you go, home you go
(Sides) to the middle and come on back, forward again and you Circle Left
Once around inside that ring you go, home you go
Face your corner, Dosado, now bow down to that lady
Swing that same little girl, then promenade and sing with me

FIGURE from Don Armstrong, “Pennsylvania Polka” on Lloyd Shaw 514
Four Ladies Promenade inside round the ring
Twice around the ring you go, your partner Swing

Swing that girl and then, you all promenade
