OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*Now old Adam was the first in history
With an apple, he was tempted and deceived
Just for spite, the devil made him take a bite
And that's where ole Adam met his Waterloo
Circle left
Waterloo, Waterloo
Allemande that corner, promenade
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads square thru in the middle get 4 hands around
Walk out to the corner do a dosado, make your wave
Swing thru now, spin the top somehow
Boy move up and do the right & left thru
Flutter wheel, straight across, sweep 1/4 more
Swing the corner girl, promenade back home
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Little General, Napoleon of France
Tried to conquer the world but lost his pants
Met defeat known as Bonapart's retreat
And that's where Napoleon met his Waterloo
*Now a feller who's darlin' proved untrue
Took her life, but he lost his too
Now he swings where the little birdie sings
And that's where Tom Dooley met his Waterloo
