Went to a dance last Saturday night
And what I mean this dance was tight
Given by a man named Lovey Joe
In a small room 'bout two by four
In this room they was thick as bees
You could hardly tell the he's from the she's
And when the band began to play
I could hear them say
"Oh, shout you cats
Do it, stomp it, step you rats
Shake your shimmy, break a leg
Grab your gal and knock 'em dead
Oh, do that thing
Hey, hey, everybody sing"
It got so good they threw away their hats
I could hear 'em hollerin', "Shout you cats"
Then came a cop 'bout half past four
I thought for sure we was booked to go
He said, "Everybody fall in line"
They kept on dancin' paid him no mind
A great big fella 'bout six foot tall
Grabbed the cop and slammed him up against the wall
The cop said "Buddy, everything's OK
Listen to what I say"
"Oh, shout you cats
Do it, stomp it, step you rats
Shake your shimmy, break a leg
Grab your gal and knock 'em dead
Oh, come on an' do that thing
Hey, hey, everybody sing"
They got so good they threw away their hats
I could hear 'em hollerin', "Shout you cats"
"Oh, shout you cats
Do it, stomp it, step you rats
Shake your shimmy, break a leg
Grab your gal and knock 'em dead
Oh, come on an' do that thing
Hey, hey, everybody sing"
It got so good they threw away they hats
I could hear 'em hollerin', "Shout you cats"
They got so good they threw away their hats
I could hear 'em hollerin', "Shout you cats"
