My Barkin' Dog (MAC 2179) Monty Wilson

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Sides face, grand square
*I was standin' on the corner, heard my bulldog bark
Ran home an hour early, it was just past dark
My dog was barkin' louder and when I walked in
The back door was open, there's that dog again
Left allemande that corner lady, do a dosado
Now men you promenade inside, it's once around you go
Pick up your partner, promenade around the bend
I know my dog is my best friend

FIGURE

Now those heads promenade, it's half around you go
2 & 4 (1 & 3) right & left thru and turn the girl you know
Star thru, California twirl, swing the corner girl
Left allemande, come back one and weave that ring go
(music interlude)
Dosado that girl, you promenade
My dog is barkin' louder and he's my best friend
Looks out for me right to the end

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*All I said was "who went out the door, my love?"
Somethin' hit me on the head from up above
I looked up and that was when the lights went out
A feelin' in the dark, someone began to shout

*He went out the back door just as I walked in

The lights went on, hey buddy what's it all about?
Everybody's laughin, they began to shout

TAG

The best I got
Looks out for me right to the end
