There is a dance today
They call the Shimmie say,
O boy! This dance is keen
I'll 'splain just what I mean.
Now if you want to know,
Just how this dance do go
Come to the Cabaret
I'll show you how to sway.
First look around and
do yourself some picking
Then get yourself
a swell looking chicken,
Now let that Jazz Band play.
Then wrap your arms around her
like a father
Don't look so nice
oh you needn't bother,
O What a thrill Hey! Hey!
Let your shoulders teach hers
how to quiver.
Till you both begin
to shake and shiver,
Then you have her all your way.
Gaze in her eyes
and do the "Texas Wiggle"
'Twill make her feel so good
she'll have to giggle,
That's the Shimmie Shake I say.
First look around and
do yourself some picking
Then get yourself
a swell looking chicken,
Now let that Jazz Band play.
Then wrap your arms around her
like a father
Don't look so nice
oh you needn't bother,
O What a thrill Hey! Hey!
Let your shoulders teach hers
how to quiver.
Till you both begin
to shake and shiver,
Then you have her all your way.
Gaze in her eyes
and do the "Texas Wiggle"
'Twill make her feel so good
she'll have to giggle,
That's the Shimmie Shake I say.
This dance has caused much strife
Will make you quit your wife.
A preacher leaves his pit,
A sane man have a fit.
And if it's done just right
'Twill make her lose her sight,
And then she'll faint away
When you begin to sway.
First look around and
do yourself some picking
Then get yourself
a swell looking chicken,
Now let that Jazz Band play.
Then wrap your arms around her
like a father
Don't look so nice
oh you needn't bother,
O What a thrill Hey! Hey!
Let your shoulders teach hers
how to quiver.
Till you both begin
to shake and shiver,
Then you have her all your way.
Gaze in her eyes
and do the "Texas Wiggle"
'Twill make her feel so good
she'll have to giggle,
That's the Shimmie Shake I say.
First look around and
do yourself some picking
Then get yourself
a swell looking chicken,
Now let that Jazz Band play.
Then wrap your arms around her
like a father
Don't look so nice
oh you needn't bother,
O What a thrill Hey! Hey!
Let your shoulders teach hers
how to quiver.
Till you both begin
to shake and shiver,
Then you have her all your way.
Gaze in her eyes
and do the "Texas Wiggle"
'Twill make her feel so good
she'll have to giggle,
That's the Shimmie Shake I say. |
