Booty Swing

Now, Arab sheikhs on the burning sands

Come into their harems and clap their hands

Said, "Come on, girls, are you ready to play?

Let's have a little more of that swingin' today."

Now, in the land of Fu Manchu

The girls all now do the Suzie-Q

Clap their hands in the center of the floor

Saying, "Ching, ching, chop-suey, swing some more!"

Now, geisha girls in old Japan

Wink behind their peacock fans

Since they learned to say, "Yeah!

Let's swing it like Amelican's swing swing dance!"

Now, Gypsy caravans have changed their mode

They truck down the Romany road

With their hi-de-hoes, and their hey-hey-diddle

Doin' the swing on the Gypsy fiddle

Them eastern wisemen know the story

Of the swing with Oriental glory

They stroke their beards and grin

Sayin', "Swing, little children, till the dawn comes in!"

Now, geisha girls in old Japan

Wink behind their peacock fans

Since they learned to say, "Yeah!

Let's swing it like Amelican's swing swing dance!"

Gypsy caravans have changed their mode

They truck down the Romany road

With their hi-de-hoes, and their hey-hey-diddle

Doin' the swing on the Gypsy fiddle
