Shake! (Everybody say it)
Shake! Early in the morning
(Shake!) Late in the evening
(Shake!) In the midnight hour
(Shake!) In the time goin' to bed
(Shake!) Shake with the feeling!
(Shake!) Shake with the feeling!
Listen while I'm talkin' to you now
Tell you what I'm gonna do now
There's a new thing going around now
I'll tell what to put down now
You move your body all around and just shake
All gone, gone, baby, now
Oh, thats the way you do it now
Shake, shake, shake it, baby
Shake it like a bowl of soup, yeah
Let your body loop the loop
Put your hands on your hip
Come on and let your backbone slip
Move your body like your hip and just shake
Got to, got to have it
Shake in the morning
Early in the evening
Oh!
A Ring-A-Ling-a-Ling
Honey, shakin' is the greatest thing
But if you really roll, gotta do the thing with soul!
Shake it, shake with all your might now
And if you do it, do it right now
Put your hands on your hip, yeah
Come on and let your backbone slip
Move your body like your hip and just shake
God, have mercy now
Early in the morning
Late in the evening
All night long, y'all!
If you really want to roll
Gotta do the thing with soul!
Shake, shake with all your might, yeah
And if you do it, do it right
Let your body loop the light
Lord, have mercy
Shake!
Everybody say it, shake!
One more time, say, "Shake!"
Everybody say it, say, "Shake!"
Everybody say it, say, "Shake!"
One more time, now, say "Shake!"
Everybody louder
Even louder
