[Verse 1]
There was a time when I used to dance
There was a time when I used to prance
Dig me now, baby, don't worry 'bout later
There's a dance I used to do they called The Mashed Potato

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
There was a dance they called The Jerk
Everybody relax and watch me work

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
In my hometown of here weird boys
The name of the place is Chicago, Illinois
Out there we have a good time
We don't talk
We say we all get together, any type of weather
Then we do the Camel Walk
Wow, wow

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Now, there was a dance that I used to do now
The name of the dance, they call it the Boogaloo
I may not do the dance as well as you
But you can bet your bottom dollar
You'll never hear me holler
I do the best that I can do
Wow
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
There was a time, sometimes I dance
Sometimes I dance, baby, sometimes I dance
Baby, baby, baby, yeah
They call me the Woman Hater
They call me the Woman Hater
But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet
Until you see me do the Dum Dum Boys
Wow, wow, wow
