I QUIT MY JOB DOWN AT THE CAR WASH LEFT MY MAMA A GOODBYE NOTE

DO AN ALLEMANDE LEFT WITH CORNER, TURN THRU AT HOME
LEFT ALLEMANDE, WEAVE THE RING NOW GO

SWING THAT GIRL AND YOU PROMENADE THAT WAY
WELL, I THOUGHT MY PICKIN WOULD SET EM ON FIRE
BUT NOBODY THERE WOULD HIRE A LITTLE GUITAR MAN
BREAK: CIRCLE LEFT
SO I SLEPT IN HOBO JUNGLES ROAMED A THOUSAND MILES OF TRACK

DO AN ALLEMANDE LEFT WITH CORNER, TURN THRU AND GO
LEFT ALLEMANDE CORNER WEAVE THE RING NOW GO

FIGURE:
HEAD 2 (SIDES) SQUARE THRU AND GO ALL THE WAY AROUND

BUT NOBODY THERE WOULD HIRE A LITTLE GUITAR MAN
