Ethel Waters - Shake That Thing lyrics

Down in Georgia, got a dance that's new Ain't nothin' to it, it's easy to do Called, "Shake that thing", oh, shake that thing I'm gettin' sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing Now, the old folks start doin' it, the young folks, too But the old folks learn the young ones what to do About shakin' that thing, ah, shake that thing I'm gettin' sick and tired of tellin' you to shake that thing Now, Grandpapa Johnson grabbed Sister Kate He shook her like you shake jelly on a plate How he shook that thing, oh, he shook that thing I'm gettin' sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing Why, there's old Uncle Jack, the jellyroll king He's got a hump in his back from shakin' that thing Yet, he still shakes that thing, for an old man, how he can shake that thing And he never gets tired of tellin' young folks how did he shake that thing Now, it ain't no Charleston, ain't no pigeon wing Nobody has to give you no lessons, to shake that thing When everybody can shake that thing, oh, I mean, shake that thing I'm gettin' tired of telling you, how to shake that thing Ooh, ooh, with this kind of music, who wouldn't shake that thing?
