Down in Georgia got a dance that ＇ s new
Ain ＇ t nothin ＇ to it it ＇ s easy to do
Called ＂ Shake That Thing ＂
Oh shake that thing
I ＇ m gettin ＇ sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing
Now the old folks start doin ＇ it the young folks too
But the old folks learn the young ones what to do
About shakin ＇ that thing
Ah shake that thing
I ＇ m gettin ＇ sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing
Now Grandpapa Johnson grabbed Sister Kate
He shook her like you shake jelly on a plate
How he shook that thing
Oh he shook that thing
I ＇ m gettin ＇ sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing
Why there ＇ s old Uncle Jack the jellyroll king
He ＇ s got a hump in his back from shakin ＇ that thing
Yet he still shakes that thing
For an old man how he can shake that thing
And he never gets tired of tellin ＇ young folks: go out and shake that thing
Now it ain ＇ t no Charleston ain ＇ t no Pigeon Wing
Nobody has to give you no lessons to shake that thing
When everybody can shake that thing
Oh I mean shake that thing
I ＇ m gettin ＇ tired of telling you how to shake that thing
Oooh oooh with this kind of music who wouldn ＇ t shake that thing
