Here's a bit that I transcribed from a sound sample:

OLD BLACK MOUNTAIN SATURDAY NIGHT

...Black Mountain is a-rockin' on a Saturday night.
Hey, over there's a pretty little widder
Well, I bet you five bucks that I'm a-gonna git 'er
Gonna swing her round the corner and her feet won't lag
When you're hootin' up a tune called the Black Mountain Rag

When the caller kips in the middle o' the floor
Y'all join hands and circle four
A-la-main left and a-la-main right
Swing your honey and you hold her tight
All join hands and circle the wheel
The more you dance the better you feel
Swing your honey and her feet won't lag
When you're hootin' up a tune called the Black Mountain Rag....
