Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You move it to the left
Yeah, and you go for yourself
You move it to the right
Yeah, if it takes all night
Now take it kinda slow
With a whole lot of soul
Don't move it too fast
You make it last
You know, you scratch just like a monkey
Yeah you do
Real
Yeah
You slide it to the limbo
Yeah, how low can you go?
[Verse 2]
Oh, come on, baby
I don't want you to stumble now
You just groove it right here to the Harlem Shuffle
[Verse 3]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Do the Harlem Shuffle
Oh, do the monkey shiner
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Do the Harlem Shuffle
[Verse 4]
Hitch, hitch-hike baby
Across the floor
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can't stand it no more
Now, come on, baby
Now get into your slide
We're gonna ride, ride, ride
Little pony, ride
Yeah
[Verse 5]
Shake, shake, shake, shake a tail feather, baby
Whoo
Shake, shake, shake, shake a tail feather, baby
Whoo! One more time
Shake, shake, shake, do the monkey shine, baby
