FIGURE
Side 2 couples right & left thru (backaway), that's fine
Heads lead right and circle to a line
Pass thru across the world, arch in the middle
Do a dixie twirl
Dixie wheel 'em right on back
Go once and a 1/2 in the middle of the track
Lady go left and the gent go right and then allemande left
Then promenade the land
Gents roll back to the corner girl
Now you're home, just swing and whirl
Swing with your "oh by Jingo" now
