Shakin’ the African (Ver. 1)歌词完整版
Shakin' The African - Don Redman
Boy it looks like we picked out the wrong spot this evening
'Course this sweet music's all right
But man we want to go where
There's some pep
Some excitement
And I really know the spot too
Where there's some real excitement
Get your hat and coat
Let's get out of here
I want you to come along with me
I mean I'm gonna take you to a place
Where it's just too bad
Isn't that better boy
That guy's hiking it
Hike it there now cats
When shadows start creepin'
And stars are peepin' to the rhythm of the band
Downtown's uptown boy
When they get to shakin' that African
A brand-new movement
Boy but what an improvement
Gang goes loco man
Ever since they started shakin' that African
But don't cornet licks red hot licks
Move you down
You want to treat your feet to a lowdown beat
You'll want to go to town
Better than the Black Bottom
Boys it's really in there
It started up here too
Oh shakin' that African
Now let me tell you
This is the biggest craze in New York City boy
And if you miss this dance boy
What a pity
Shakin' that thing
