Down At The Lah De Dah

Mike Seastrom (Courtesy Rhythm Records)

Heads Face, Grand Square
On a patch of sand, where the warm wind blows
Not a TV set, not a radio
Just an old guitar, when the sun sinks low
Down at the Lah De Dah
Four Ladies Chain
We all know (Chain 'em back) How lucky we are
Full Promenade
Down at the lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah
Down at the Lah De Dah

When the Stars Come Out, It’s the Place to Be
If You’re All Alone Needing Company
It’s a Dancing Place and the Fun Is Free
Down At the Lah De Dah (Four Ladies Chain)
(Remainder same as opener)

When the Band Strikes Up and the Sun Goes Down
And the Dancing Starts for Another Round
And The Rumors fly, Mermaids are In Town
Down At the Lah De Dah
(Remainder same as opener, but replace last tagline as shown in tag)

Down at the lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah
Lah, lah, lah, lah — Circle Left and Sing with Me!
Lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah
Down at the Lah De Dah
Down at the Lah De Dah

Heads/Sides Promenade It’s Halfway you know
Walk In and then you Square Thru, it’s Four Hands and go
All the Way and a Right and Left Thru
You Veer Left and Ferris Wheel There too
Centers Square Thru, Count Three Hands, and then
Swing, and All Promenade
Down at the lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah, lah
Down at the Lah De Dah
