Betty's Got A Bass Boat
(SD 310)
Pat Carnathan
INTRO
Sides face, grand square
Now, Betty was your average ordinary girl
Who never wanted very much outta this world
Just an occasional dinner and twirl from a regular man
Allemande left and weave
So Betty stayed up one lonely night
Tryin' to figure out what a man might like
Then like a bolt right outta the blue
She got herself a plan!
FIGURE (Twice for heads, twice for sides):
Heads (Sides) pass the ocean, swing thru
Extend and go, centers trade
Well, you do a single hinge, acey deucey
Boy run right and bend the line
Pass thru, wheel and deal, zoom
Centers pass thru, swing and promenade
'Cause things sure got a lot better
Since Betty bought a bass boat
MIDDLE BREAK
Circle left
Now, lately getting' a date isn't all that hard
There's a half-a-dozen rednecks fightin' in the yard
Left allemande and then dosado, men star left inside
Turn your partner by the right hand around
And do a left allemande, swing and promenade
It's so ironic and the funny thing is
She don't like to fish!
CLOSER
Circle left
Betty's got a bass boat and Betty's got a truck
All of sudden things are lookin' up
Left allemande and dosado her
Left allemande and weave
It might be coincidental (then again)
You just might never know
But things sure got a lot better
Since Betty bought a bass boat
TAG
Yeah, things sure got a lot better
Since Betty bought a bass boat
(Use these lyrics during the opener:)
Never wanted very much outta this world
Just an occasional dinner and twirl from a regular guy
So Betty set up one lonely night
Tryin' to figure out what a man might like
Then like a bolt right outta the blue
She got herself a plan
(Use these lyrics during the middle break:)
There's a half a dozen Bubbas fightin' in the yard
She won em over with her Southern charm and a satellite dish
Now Betty can't believe her popularity
She's thinkin' 'bout marketing a recipe
It's so ironic and the funny thing is
She never even liked to fish
(Use these lyrics during the closer:)
All of a sudden things are lookin' up
She's the most popular girl in town
Since she got a new camper and a huntin' hound
It might be coincidental or you just might never know
Oh but things sure got a lot better
Since Betty got a bass boat
