Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wally's getting anxious thinkin' 'bout tonight
Bruce is all spiffy lookin' wicked lookin' right
Eddie's getting spruced and Donna's getting loose
They're passin' round the bottle and they're gettin' good and juiced
G.G.'s winin' dinin' checkin' talent at the club
Skippers hauntin' second lookin' forward to his rub
The busters from the country and the hitters from the shop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
[Verse 2]
Someone bring the record someone get the brew
Someone get a house buddy we'll know what to do
Someone tell the ladies someone make a deal
If we can't find a house then someone better find a field
[Verse 3]
Grass is good as carpet anyplace is fine
It's time to get to rocking babe it's time to make it shine
Tell 'em we'll be dancing dancing till we drop
It's time to get down and do the Horizontal Bop
[Verse 4]
Oh, yeah
[Verse 5]
They're fillin' up the corners
They're fillin' up the streets
You can feel the tension you can almost feel the heat
The music's gettin' louder the beat's gettin' fast
Summers finally made it yeah it's finally here at last
[Verse 6]
The pony cars are cruisin' on Woodward Avenue
Go and try to pass 'em they'll smoke you if you do
The whole town's shakin' from the bottom to the top
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
The busters from the country and the hitters from the shop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
Tell 'em we'll be dancing dancing till we drop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
