Oh, girl, it's the way that you boogaloo
That makes a boy look at you
(It’s not what you say, it's what you do)
And it's the way that you move your hip
That makes the boys all flip
(It’s not what you say, it's what you do)
So listen carefully when I tell you
'Cause I'm a boy and I know it's true
(It's not what you say, what you do)
(It's not what you say, what you do)
Yeah it's the way that you pass ’em by
That makes the fellas sigh
(It’s not what you say, it's what you do)
You know a fella’d rather see you walk
Than have to hear you talk
(It's not what you say, it's what you do)
Just put a wiggle in your every strut
And don't forget to keep your big mouth shut
(Not what you say, what you do)
(It’s not what you say, what you do)
[Bridge]
Put a wiggle in your strut
Keep your big mouth shut, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Put a wiggle in your strut
Keep your big mouth shut, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Put a wiggle in your strut
Keep your big mouth shut, baby
Do that boogaloo
Put a wiggle in your strut
Keep your big mouth shut, baby
All the boys will look at you
