Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport Rolf Harris 1957 | (Old Timer 8195) Bob Kirkland |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 11
Men star left in the middle of the ring, go once around I say
Pick up your girl, star promenade around the ring that way
Girls wheel out and take a backtrack, go twice around you fly
Go twice around and box the gnat and then you pull her by
Left allemande and weave around, you weave around that ring
Meet your girl and dosado, then promenade and sing
Tie me kangaroo down, sport, tie me kangaroo down
Tie me kangaroo down, sport, tie me kangaroo down
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Head 2 couples go up and back, then do a right & left thru
Half square thru across the set with the corner you star thru
Pass thru, move on then right & left thru, turn your little girl
Star thru, dive thru, then California twirl
Swing your corner round and round, left allemande that ring
Dosado go once around, then promenade and sing
*Watch me wallaby feed, mate, watch me wallaby feed
They're a dangerous breed, mate, so watch me wallaby feed
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Take me ko-ala back, Jack, take me ko-ala back
He lives somewhere out on the track, Jack, so take me ko-ala back
*Let me addas go loose, Lou, let me abbas go loose
They're of no further use, Lou, so let me abbas go loose
*Mind me platypus duck, Bill, mind me platypus duck
Don't let him go running amuck, Bill, just mind me platypus duck
