Here's my set of words, worked out when I was producing a booklet to go with a cassette of music for singing squares called "Square Dance Saturday Night". The original words are by John Chatfield. Break: Bow to your partner, and swing your little love Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, heavens above Now circle left around that ring And when you get back home - everybody face your own and Do-si-do your partner; the men left-hand star. It's once around you go. Put your arm round your maid, do a star promenade Singing oh Johnny, oh Johnny, oh. Figure: Head couples bow, and you swing your little love Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, heavens above. Now promenade outside that square And when you get back home - everybody face your own and Do-si-do your partner; the men left-hand star It's once around you go. Put your arm round your maid, do a star promenade Singing oh Johnny, oh Johnny, oh. Colin Hume
