Dock Of The Bay
Otis Redding 1967
  (Rhythm 205)   Wade Driver
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*I left my home in Georgia
And headed for the Frisco bay

Left allemande, dosado now
Allemande left and weave it I say
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Swing with your girl, promenade
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin time


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I'm sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes


*Three thousand miles I've roamed
Just to make this dock my home


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads square thru four hands around
Dosado the corner girl you've found
Swing thru and the the boys you run
Half tag, walk & dodge, then a partner trade
Pass the ocean, recycle now
Swing that corner, promenade around
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin time


TAG

Chain the ladies over and back
Instrumental tag (whistle if you want)
