BASIC 2

OPENER

Circle Left

It’s Monday and I’m digging in the dirt

For a whole lot of nothing

The Men Star Right, turn it one time round

Allemande Left and Weave

I’m hot and bothered

Swing your own and Promenade

Working out in the red hot sun

It’s 40 degrees

FIGURE

Heads Promenade travel Halfway round

Down the middle, Square Thru 4

4 hands and then, DoSaDo

Swing Thru, the Boys Run Right

Couples Circulate, Chain down the Line

With this one, Promenade

Working out in the red hot sun

It’s 40 degrees

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Sides Face Grand Square

I’m hot and bothered

* And it’s getting to me or (* It’s annoying me)

ORIGINAL LYRICS

It’s Monday and I’m digging in the dirt for a whole lot of nothing

Driving that shovel in deep till I hit rock bottom

Running those wires making sure the posts are straight

Me and my mates think it’s time that we had a break

 

I’m hot and bothered and it’s getting to me

Working out in the red hot sun it’s 40 degrees

I’m hot and bothered it’s annoying me

Well it’s a quarter to four and that old dam’s looking good to me

 

Better saddle up Joe we gotta lot of miles yet to cover

Bringing in a hundred head by two we better work a lot faster

Got to keep ‘em moving got to get ‘em past the old creek bed

Sweats running down my back and that heat’s beating down on my head

 

I’m hot and bothered and it’s getting to me

Working out in the red hot sun it’s 40 degrees

I’m hot and bothered it’s annoying me

Well it’s a quarter to four and that old dams looking good to me

 

I’m hot and bothered and it’s getting to me

Working out in the red hot sun it’s 40 degrees

I’m hot and bothered it’s annoying me

Well it’s a quarter to four and that old dams looking good to me

 

I’m hot and bothered it’s annoying me

Well it’s a quarter to four and that old dams looking good to me
