Come here sister... Papa's in the swing

He ain't too hip... about that new breed babe

He ain't no drag

Papa's got a brand new bag

Come here mama... and dig this crazy scene

He's not too fancy... but his line is pretty clean

He ain't no drag.

Papa's got a brand new bag

He's doing the Jerk...

He's doing the Fly

Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy

He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potatoes, Jump back Jack, See you later

alligator.

Come here sister

Papa's in the swing

He ain't too hip now

but I can dig that new breed babe;

He ain't no drag

He's got a brand new bag

Oh papa! He's doing the Jerk

Papa... he's doing the Jerk

He's doing the twist ... just like this,

He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night

The thing's... like the Boomerang.

Hey... come on

Hey! Hey... come on

Hey! Hey... he's pu tight... out of sight...

Come on. Hey! Hey!
