Why have a song if you ain't gonna sing
Make a move do your thing
It don't really matter if you're out of tune
So enjoy yourself all afternoon

I'm putting my foot down
And swing my thing back around
And play my favorite tune
Do dew dee dup de dap de doo

Why buy the shoes if you ain't gonna dance
Free your mind take a chance
What are you doing just hanging around
Shake a hip go down town

I'm putting my foot down
And swing my thing back around
And play my favorite tune
Do dew dee dup de dap de doo

I better sooner than later
Pull my head out the sand
Stop lying in the gutter
Sipping whiskey with my crackers and spam

Why wear the ring if it ain't gonna shine
Tell your man you're worth the dime
And why have a heart if it ain't gonna buzz
Kiss him hard and feel his love

I'm putting my foot down and swing my thing back a
I'm putting my foot down and switch this hip back a
And play my own damn tune
Do dew dee dup de dwap de doo
