Lyrics

I wish I could shimmy like my sister Kate

'Cause she can shake like a jelly on a plate

My mama wanted to know last night

Why all the boys think Kate's so nice

All the boys in the neighborhood

They know that she can shimmy good

You may be late but I'll be up to date

When I shimmy like my sister Kate

I went to a dance with my sister Kate

Everybody there thought she was so great

I looked around for somethin' to do

Sweet Lord, they were doin' it too

Sister Kate, she was in a trance

And then I knew it was in her dance

Everyone was going wild

Over Sister Katie's style

Sister Katie's style

(Instrumental break)

I wish I could shimmy like my sister Kate

'Cause she can shake like a jelly on a plate

My mama wanted to know last night

Why all the boys think Kate's so nice

All the boys in the neighborhood

They know that she can shimmy good

You may be late but I'll be up to date

When you shimmy like my sister Kate

When you shimmy like my sister Kate
