Fats Waller
Yacht Club Swing
(Verse)
Hoist your anchor, pull in the plank, hands on deck
Strap your life belt, ready Captain, check, double check
I want some seafood, baby
I want some seafood, baby
(Chorus)
There's magic in a slow soothing ripple
That makes you dance even though your’e a cripple
You can't resist, get aboard that yacht club swing
If skies are grey, never mind stormy weather
You're gonna fell just as light as a feather
Look what you’ve missed, let them play that yacht club swing
Don't go starboard, keep on moving round' the raft
Don't go port side, keep on grooving fore and aft
Love is the thing but swing is in power
Go get your partner, don't mind the hour
You can't resist when you board the yacht club swing
