Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna tell you 'bout a dance that's going around
Everybody's doing it from the grownups down
Don't move your head, don't move your hands
Don't move your lips, just shake your hips
[Chorus]
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe
[Verse 2]
Well, if you don't know, don't be afraid
Just listen to me, dig what I say
Don't move your head, don't move your hands
Don't move your lips, just shake your hips
[Verse 3]
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe
[Bridge]
Well, ain't that easy?
[Verse 4]
Well, I met a little girl in a country town
She said, "What do you know? There's Slim Harpo"
Didn't move her head, didn't move her hands
Didn't move her lips, she shook her hips
[Chorus]
Did a hip shake, babe
Did a hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe
[Outro]
Well, ain't that easy?
