Well, I heard about the fellow you've been dancing with
All over the neighborhood
So why don't you ask me, baby
Or didn't you think I could?
Well, I know that the boogaloo is out of sight
But the shingaling's playin' tonight
But if that's what moves you, baby
I would have shown you how to do it right
Do it right
