Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If you see a faded sign at the side of the road

That says, "15 miles to the Love Shack"

Love Shack, yeah, yeah

I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway

Lookin' for the love getaway

Headed for the love getaway

[Verse 2]

I got me a car, it's as big as a whale (Love getaway)

And we're heading on down to the Love Shack (Love getaway)

I got me a Chrysler, it seats about twenty (Love getaway)

So hurry up and bring your jukebox money

[Chorus]

The Love Shack is a little ol' place where

We can get together

Love Shack, baby (A Love Shack, baby)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)

[Verse 3]

Sign says, "Stay away, fools"

'Cause love rules at the Love Shack

Well, it's set way back in the middle of a field

Just a funky ol' shack and I gotta get back

Glitter on the mattress, glitter on the highway

Glitter on the front porch, glitter on the highway

[Chorus]

The Love Shack is a little ol' place where

We can get together

Love Shack, baby

Love Shack, baby

Love Shack, that's where it's at

Love Shack, that's where it's at

[Verse 4]

Huggin' and a kissin', dancin' and a lovin'

Wearin' next to nothing 'cause it's hot as an oven

The whole shack shimmies

Yeah, the whole shack shimmies

The whole shack shimmies when everybody's moving around

And around and around and around

[Bridge]

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby

Folks lining up outside just to get down

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby

Funky little shack, funky little shack

[Verse 5]

Hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale, and it's about to set sail

I got me a car, it seats about twenty

So c'mon and bring your jukebox money

[Chorus]

The Love Shack is a little ol' place where

We can get together

Love Shack, baby (A Love Shack, baby)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at, yeah)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)

[PreChorus]

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

Knock a little louder, baby

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

I can't hear you

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

Knock a little louder, sugar

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

I can't hear you

[PreChorus]

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

Knock a little louder

Bang, bang, bang on the door, baby

Bang, bang

On the door, baby

Bang, bang

On the door

Bang, bang

On the door, baby

Bang, bang

You're what?

Tin roof, rusted

[Chorus]

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at, yeah)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Huggin' and a kissin', dancin' and a lovin' at the Love Shack)
