Circle Left
There’s a path that leads back to that ramshackle shack
In the hills of old Kentucky far away
Men Star Right hand one time you go
Allemande that Corner and Weave the Ring
Oh I can hear (I can hear) the whippoorwill, (whippoorwill)
Softly singing out the message from the hill
Nevermore will I roam from my old Kentucky home,
And that ramshackle shack on the hill

Many years have I roamed from my old Kentucky home
And the friends that I loved there so well

Four boys Promenade inside one time,
Back home Swing your girl,
Join hands Circle left, Allemande Left, Weave the Ring
[Remainder same as opener]

Heads (Sides) Square Thru, four hands around you go,
Split the Outside Two Around 1 to a Line,
Forward up and back, Touch 1/4, Boys Run Right,
Right and Left Thru, Rollaway, Box the Gnat,
Swing and Promenade
Nevermore will I roam from my old Kentucky home,
And that ramshackle shack on the hill
