Everybody's got a dance to do but me
Everybody's got a song to sing about but me
Chubby Checker, he did The Twist
Bobby Ryddell, he did The Fish
But here I am, stuck with just a melody
Everybody's got a dance to do but me
Everybody's got a song to sing about but me
The Isley Two, they Twist And Shout
The Wah-Watusi just knocks me out
But here I am, stuck with just a melody
Let me tell you now
Thanks to Dee Dee and old James Brown
The Mashed Potato really got around
I got find a step that's new
So I can have a dance to do
Everybody's got a dance to do but me
Everybody's got a song to sing about but me
Little Eva's Locomotion
Started up a big commotion
But here I am, stuck with just a melody
Let me tell you now
Thanks to Dee Dee and old James Brown
The Mashed Potato really got around
I got find a step that's new
So I can have a dance to do
Everybody's got a dance to do but me
Everybody's got a song to sing about but me
Little Eva's Locomotion
Started up a big commotion
But here I am, stuck with just a melody
Talking about it
Here I am stuck with just a melody now
