Gotta Shake that Thing Songtext
von Leon Redbone

Let me hear that
Play it again
Sounds tight to me
Better take it out and shake it

Down in Georgia there′s a dance they do
Ain't nothing to it, it′s easy to do
Gotta shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Oh shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Telling you yeah, shake, shake that thing


They shake in the east, shake in the west
Way down south they shake the best
Gotta shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Oh shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Don't be mean old man, just gotta shake that thing

Big old girl named Alice Reed
Blew the leaves right off the tress
She shook that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Oh shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
My oh my, she sure did shake that thing

She got two big feet - size forty four
Gotta back up to knock at the door
Shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
Oh shake that thing [(Oh, shake that thing!)]
She don't need no shoes but she sure can shake that thing
