Mama said on the day I was born
There was a whole lotta shakin� goin� on
There was a party next door the people callin� out for more
And they played the boogie all night long
I was raised on a beat that was oh so sweet
Fed on the rhythm and blues
When she sent me on my way I heard my mama say
Son, don抰 forget your dancin� shoes
Bop 抰il you drop
Shake it 抰il you break it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance
(repeat)
When you抮e down at a party and the music抯 hot
And you see somebody that you like a lot
Don抰 fight the feelin� if the feelin抯 right
Take a chance and dance 抍ause tonight抯 the night
We抣l do it right
Bop 抰il you drop
Shake it 抰il you break it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance dance
(repeat)
Bop, bop, bop
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, da-da-dance
Back in 57 I was just a little boy
And my sister jenny sue, she was the queen of the hop
After school she抎 be stackin� up her 45抯
Practising her shimmy shimmy koko bop
She had to do it right 抍ause come on saturday night
She was the hot girl on the floor
Mama抎 catch her in the kitchen but instead of doing dishes
She抎 be brushin� up her boogie on the 抐rigerator door
Bop 抰il you drop
Shake it 抰il you break it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance dance
(repeat)
Bop, bop, bop
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance, come on and dance, dance
Da-da-dance, come on and dance, dance
Da-da-dance
Ah when it抯 come-a come-a doo down down pretty baby
And the music starts movin� and it抯 drivin� you crazy
Don抰 get caught just-a hangin� around
抍ause you gotta get up if you wanna get down
Get up, get up, get down down down
Come on and dance, dance
Don抰 it make you wanna get up and dance
Bop, bop, bop
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance
Bop 抰il you drop
Shake it 抰il you break it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance
Bop, bop, bop
Come on, come on, come on
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Move it 抰il you lose it
Dance, dance, da-da-dance
Come on and dance, dance, da-da-dance
Come on and dance, dance, da-da-dance
