The Locomotion Songtext

von Little Eva

EVERYBODY'S DOING A BRAND NEW DANCE NOW
(come on baby do the locomotion)
I KNOW YOU'LL GET TO LIKE IT
IF YOU GIVE IT A CHANCE NOW
(come on baby do the locomotion)

MY LITTLE BABY SISTER CAN DO IT WITH EASE,
IT'S EASIER THAN LEARNING YOUR ABC
SO COME ON, COME ON DO THE LOCOMOTION WITH ME

YOU GOTTA SWING YOUR HIPS NOW
COME ON BABY JUMP UP, JUMP BACK
WELL I THINK YOU GOT THE KNACK, WHOA, WHOA

NOW THAT YOU CAN DO IT LET'S MAKE A CHAIN NOW
(come on baby do the locomotion)
A CHUGA CHUGA MOTION LIKE A RAILWAY TRAIN NOW
(come on baby do the locomotion)

DO IT NICE AND EASY NOW DON'T LOOSE CONTROL,
A LITTLE BIT OF RHYTHM AND A LOTTA SOUL,
SO COME ON COME ON DO THE LOCOMOTION WITH ME

MOVE AROUND THE FLOOR IN A LOCOMOTION
(come on baby do the locomotion)
DO IT HOLDING HANDS IF YOU GET THE NOTION
(come on baby do the locomotion)

THERE'S NEVER BEEN A DANCE THAT'S SO EASY TO DO
IT EVEN MAKES YOU HAPPY WHEN YOUR FEELING BLUE
SO COME ON, COME ON DO THE LOCOMOTION WITH ME

YOU GOTTA SWING YOUR HIPS NOW
THAT'S RIGHT YOU'RE DOIN' FINE
COME ON BABY HMM, HMM, HMM JUMP UP
JUMP BACK YOU'RE LOOKIN' GOOD HMM, HMM, HMM
JUMP UP, JUMP BACK YOU'RE LOOKIN' GOOD
HMM, HMM, HMM JUMP UP
