Our

Em new

frontier town is

D ar

ranged in a square.

Four

Em walls

seal out weather, both

D storm

y and fair.

So it’s

C long

been the rule, in our

Em churches

and schools,

That we

C dance

in a

D square

in our

Em ev

eningwear.

Now the

Em old

Earth is restless; she

D keeps

fighting back

As us

Em God

-fearing folk square

D off

for attack.

’Til the

C hands

of our town beat the

Em rest

lessness down.

Then we

C dance

in a

D square

in our

Em ev

eningwear.

If you

Em fol

low your neighbor’s wife

D one

moonlit night,

Does

Em she

roll in the clover with

D no

man in sight?

Then check

C o

ver your own; you must

Em chain

her back home,

Where we

C dance

in a

D square

in our

Em ev

eningwear.

Yet this

Em New

World is wild; we

D face

once again

Those

Em na

tives whose women dance

D circ

les ’round men.

But our

C new

way will spread, ’til the

Em old

ones are dead.

And we’ll

C dance

in a

D square

in our

Em ev

eningwear.
