Jump in the Line Lyrics

[Chorus 1]
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, Senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, Senora, work it all the time

[Verse 1]
My girl's name is Senora
I tell you friends, I adore her
And when she dances, oh brother!
She's a hurricane in all kinds of weather

[Chorus 2]
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa!

[Chorus 1]
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, Senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, Senora, work it all the time

[Verse 2]
You can talk about Cha Cha
Tango, Waltz, or the Rumba
Senora's dance has no title
You jump in the saddle
Hold on to de bridle

[Chorus 2]
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa!

[Chorus 1]
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, Senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, Senora, work it all the time

[Verse 3]
Senora, she's a sensation
The reason for aviation
And fellas, you got to watch it
When she wind up, she bottom, she go like a rocket

[Alt. Chorus 2]
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Hoist those guns a little higher!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Up the chimney!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whooooa!

[Chorus 1]
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, Senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, Senora, work it all the time

[Verse 4]
Senora dances Calypso
Left to right is the tempo
And when she gets the sensation
She go up in the air, come down in slow motion

[Chorus 2]
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa!

[Alt. Chorus 1]
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, Senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, Senora!
