There's a whole lot of talk around town
'Bout the way you carryin' yourself
There's a whole lot of talk around town
'Bout the way you carryin' yourself
You're jivin' everybody in town
But baby, I know what you're puttin' down

Everybody's tryin' to dig you, baby
Everybody but me
Everybody's tryin' to dig you
Everybody but me
You're foolin' everybody in town
But baby I know what you're puttin' down

You went out last night
To a dinner, a show, and a dance
Ooh, you went out last night
To a dinner, a show, and a dance
You must have been a perfect clown
But baby, I know what you're puttin' down

[Instrumental Break]

You got a ramblin' mind
Just don't wanna stay at home
Yes, baby, you got a ramblin' mind
You just don't wanna stay at home
You tell me you're visitin' all your relatives in town
But baby, I know what you're puttin' down
You came home last night
With a new hat, new dress, and a new pair o' shoes
Yes, you came home at eight o'clock last night
With a new hat, new dress, and a new pair o' shoes
You ain't working nowhere in town
So baby, I know what you're puttin' down
