Loose Caboose

[Intro]
Hey Chubby Checker, hey Hank Ballard
Hey Rufus Thomas and hey Joey Dee
I remember when y'all had the whole world dancin'
Now come on and do this little dance with me

[Chorus]
It's called the Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it-a loose, oh Lord
The Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it-a loose, oh yeah
It's called the Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it-a loose, oh Lord
It's the Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it-a loose
Well, say it, baby
Here it come
Here it come
Here it come, y'all
Here the pockets count well

[Verse 1]
Park and gon' show you how it's done
And if you learn how to do it, you'll have a whole lot of fun
'Cause the ways you twist that thing and move it around
A chicken-eatin' preacher lay his drumstick down
Ain't that the truth, y'all?

[Bridge]
(Hey, man) Alright!
Hey-ey man, Lord
Hey-hey, hey-yeah
Hey-hey, hey-hey-hey
Ow!
Hey-hey

[Verse 2]
Drink your juice and do the Loose Caboose-a
You better come on, you better come on, alright!
Drink your juice and do the Loose Caboose-a
You better come on, you better come on-a
Drink your juice and do the Loose Caboose-a
You better come on, you better come on-a
Drink your juice and do the Loose Caboose-a
You better come on, you better come on
We're doin' the
I sure wanna do it, y'all

[Chorus]
Find out the Loose Caboose
Shake it and turn it a-loose, doggone it, huh
We're doin' the Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it a-loose
I'll tell you I wanna do it
The Loose Caboose-a (Alright!)
Shake it and turn it a-loose

[Verse 3]
Wait a minute, wait a minute!
Look here, Lord have mercy
Now you know everybody got a caboose now (Oh yeah!)
They got big ones, hmm-hmm and little old bitty skinny ones, heuh-heuh
They come in all sizes
See there's a fine young sister over there, say baby!
When the last time you shook your caboose?
5:30 this morning
Is that right? Heh, listen
If I had some horns on this thing
Will you get out there and shake that caboose for the people?
Why, sure I will!
Horns get ready now, we're gonna put it on!
A-one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight

[Bridge]
Yeah, they're gonna do it out there
That's it, that's right!
Shake what your mama gave you, baby
Oh!

[Verse 4]
Wait a minute!
Here the old man coming' through to
Lord have mercy, look, he barely makin' it
Pops comin' in over-
Say, pops
What you want with me, boy?
When the last time you shook your caboose?
I believe it was back in 1923, somewhere back there
Oh man, you-you need to get out here and get some exercise here
I got this young girl over here for you
If I had some horns on this thing
Will you get on out here and do it?
Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh!
Will you?
I-I won't- I'll so try it, I'll tell you that
Hoo-heh-heh!
Now get it!
A-one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight

[Bridge]
Go on, pops!
Don't fall down, now, don't fall down, now
Don't step down there and hurt your hip, now
Don't let that young girl hurt, ha-ha-ha-ha!

[Verse 5]
Wait a minute!
*Mister, I wanna do the Loose Caboose*
*But my mama won't let me*
Said she won't?
Where's your mama at, baby?
*She's gone to work*
Gone to work?
Well, I tell you what
We're gonna do this caboose while she's at work
And if you don't tell her, I won't tell her
Is that alright?
*Okay!*
What's your name?
*Letonya*
Where you from?
*Mobile, Alabama*
Letonya from Mobile, Alabama
We're gonna give you some horns
And I want you to shake that body, girl
You know it!
A-one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight
Lord, heh-heh

[Bridge]
She's doin' it, ha-ha-ha-ha!
Lord, have mercy
Y'all sure like it
Move it up, there, she doin' it!
Let's give Letonya a hand, give Letonya-
Better trust you're right

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, it's the Loose Caboose
Shake it and turn it a-loose, oh Lord, oh Lord
Loose Caboose-a
Shake it and turn it a-loose
Say it again, y'all
