Ah, you can talk about the pit, barbecue
The band was jumpin´, the people too
Ah, mess around
They doin´ the mess around
They doin´ the mess around,
Everybody doin´ the mess around
Ah, everybody was juiced, you can, bet your soul
They did the boogie-woogie, with a sturdy roll (?)
They mess around
They doin´ the mess around
They doin´ the mess around,
Everybody doin´ the mess around
Now, ah, when I say stop don´t you move a peg
When I say go, just ah, shake your leg
And do the mess around
I declare, do the mess around
Yeah do the mess around,
Everybody´s doin´ the mess around
Now let me have it there boy
[Piano Solo]
Now you got it boy
[Sax Solo]
(Yeah, ah, mess around, go on mess around)
(Mess around, boy)
Now this band´s goin´ to play from, 9 to 1
Everybody here´s gonna have some fun
Doin´ the mess around
Ah, doin´ the mess around
They doin´ the mess around,
Everybody doin´ the mess around
Now you see that girl, with that, diamond ring
She knows how to, shake that thing
Mess around
I declare, she can mess around
Ah, mess around,
Everybody do the mess around |
