Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now everybody's talkin' about all the brand new dances
But I got three, huh
That I'm gon' do for you
Lord, have mercy
I'm gonna start with a dance now, baby
Called the Boogaloo
You know that one, don't you?
Everybody's groovin', baby
It's gonna groove you too
Lord, have mercy
[Verse 2]
Hey, hit it
Whoa
Get it, get it, get it, get it, ow
[Verse 3]
Gonna make you feel alright
I won't move up and down
And do that step
Come here, baby
And when you get that feelin', baby
You gonna look real great
Lord, have mercy
[Verse 4]
Oh, help me
Hey
Oh
Get it, get it, get it, get it, ow
[Verse 5]
Huh, Lord, I'm feelin' alright now
[Verse 6]
Wait a minute
Everybody
Come here
I got a brand new dance
Huh
The whole wide world, now baby
Is doin' the shing-a-ling
You heard about it ain't you?
When you move your hips, uh
Lord, have mercy
And raise your hand
Look here now, baby
Shake it from side to side, baby
That's the shing-a-ling
Oh, I like that one
Now get it, get it, hey
Lord, have mercy
I do the shing-a-ling now baby
Whoa
[Verse 7]
Drop, drop
Now, now, oh
Get that, oh
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Lord, have mercy
Do the shing-a-ling
Lord, have mercy
All the girls with the mini skirts on, lookin' good
Oh
I like the way you do it
Do the shing-a-ling
