Ooh ooh ooh Nobody knew her name But she turned up just the same There was a knock on the door A thump on the floor and the party turned insane As she called out her name. And she walked in looking like dynamite She said now come along boogaloo through the night And by the way she's moving well Dynamite might she not with all she's got she's got the whole town lighting up dynamite Nobody quite knowing what to do Wrong or right But they all know Dyna is Dynamite And they're right.

And she walked in looking like dynamite . . .
