Shake That Thing (Take 2)

[Verse 1]
Now down in Georgia, they got a dance that's new
There ain't nothin' to it, it's easy to do
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 2]
Now it ain't no Charleston, ain't no pigeon wing
All you got to do is just shake that thing
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 3]
Now the old folks like it, the young folks too
The old folks learn the young folks how to do
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 4]
Now get right to me, then [?]
Let your mammy show you just how to do
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 5]
I was walkin' downtown and stumbled and fell
My mouth jumped open like a country well
Watchin' 'em shake that thing, ah, watchin' 'em shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Banjo solo]

[Verse 6]
Now Grandpa Johnson grabbed Sister Kate
He shook her just like he shakes a jelly on the plate
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 7]
Now old Uncle Jack, the jelly roll king
He just got back from shakin' that thing
Now shake that thing, watchin' 'em all shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 8]
Now old Uncle Mose, he's sick in bed
The doctor says he's almost dead
From watchin' 'em shake that thing, watchin' 'em all shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing

[Verse 9]
Now the folks in Georgia, they done gone wild
All over this brand new dancin' style
They call it "Shake That Thing," ah, shake that thing
I'm gettin' sick 'n' tired of tellin' you to shake that thing
