We're doing a new dance, real strong dance
Everybody, sisters, papas, mamas, papa's boys
A stone dance, you know what they're doing

Miami, Florida, going to the Island Club
Step over in Memphis
Going to the Hippo Drome
Everybody’s swinging
The Mar keys going down under

Going to the California
Going to the Five Four Ballroom
Step over in Detroit city
