Suds In The Bucket
(MM 143)
Ingo Schumacher
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK
Circle left
*She was in the backyard, they say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck
Allemande left your corner and dosado
Left allemande and weave the ring
**Now her daddy's in the kitchen starin' out the window
Scratchin' and a wrackin' his brains
How could 18 years just up and walk away
You go to swing and now promenade away
Our little pony-tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin' out on the line
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna preach about Sunday morn
Nothin' quite like this has happened here before
**Now all the biddy's in the beauty shop, gossip goin' non-stop
FIGURE
Head/side couples square thru go 4, then do a dosado the corner girl
Swing thru tonight and girls fold, peel the top
Boys move up, right & left thru
You roll away, box the gnat, pass the ocean here
Swing and now promenade away
Our little pony-tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin' out on the line
CLOSER
Four ladies chain across that ring, you roll away and circle left
4 ladies roll away, circle left
Left allemande and weave the ring
She's got her pretty little bare feet hangin' out the window
And they're headin' up to Vegas tonight
How could 18 years just up and walk away
You go to swing and now promenade away
Our little pony-tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye...
TAG
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin' out...
Sides face grand square
She was in the backyard, they say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck
Plenty old enough and you can't stop love
Now you can't fence time, and you can't stop love
