[Verse 1:]
It started in Roanoke a little whiles ago
A friend knew a dance that you ought to know
They call it flat footin' and it sure looks fine
Right now it's flat footin' it time
[Chorus:]
And you'll be flat footin' it, flat gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is
Until you hear that guitar pickin' it, pick it
[Verse 2:]
Just let your arms hang right where they are
Then you'll start flat footin' it ? to the bar
Turn yourself loose all the law will allow
And you're doing that flat footin' it now
[Chorus:]
You'll be flat footin' it, flat gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is
Until you hear that drummer pickin' it, pick it
[Verse 3:]
It started in Roanoke and came a long way
Now it's a flat footin' it USA
Good for your spirits and good for your health
You oughta try a little flat footin' yourself
[Chorus:]
And you'll be flat footin' it, flat gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is
Until you hear that ba** fiddle pickin' it, pick it
[Verse 4:]
Well, all of the students at the University
Shocked and amazed the existing faculty
Some dropped Biology and some cut their math
To enroll in a flat footin' it cla**
[Chorus:]
Flat footin' it, flat gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is
Until you hear that band a' pickin' it, pick it
