Lyrics

[Chorus]
My baby does the hanky panky
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
Hey, my baby does the hanky panky
[Chorus]
My baby does the hanky panky
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
Hey, my baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
Hey, my baby does the hanky panky
[Verse 1]
I saw her walkin' on down the line, yeah
You know I saw her for the very first time
A pretty little girl standin' all alone
Hey, pretty baby, can I take you home?
I never saw her, never really saw her
[Chorus]
My baby does the hanky panky
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
[Bridge]
Ah, let's hold it down, let's go
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
I saw her walkin' on down the line, yeah
You know I saw her for the very first time
A pretty little girl standin' all alone
Hey, pretty baby, can I take you home?
I never saw her, never, never saw her
Get real low one time, now
[Chorus]
Hey, my baby does the hanky panky
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
Let's knock them dead one time, let's go
[Outro]
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
My baby does the hanky panky
Yeah, my baby does the hanky panky
