I wanna tell you 'bout a dance
that's goin' ‘round
everybody's doin' it
from the grownups down
Have to move your head
Have to move your hands
Have to move your lips
just shake your hips
Do the hip shake, babe
do the hip shake, babe
do the hip shake, babe
shake your hip, babe
What you don't know
don't be afraid
just listen to me
and do what I say
Don't move your head
Don't move your hands
Don't move your lips
just shake your hips
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hips, babe
Well ain't that easy
Well, I met a little girl
In a country town
She said, «What do you know
There's Slim Harpo!»
I didn't move my head
I didn't move my hands
I didn't move my lips
She shook her hips
She did a hip shake, babe
Did a hip shake, babe
Did a hip shake, babe
Shake you hips babe
well ain't that easy
