Well you can act like a monkey
Shake your hands do the limbo till you can't stand
Well you can mash your potata, hippy hippy shake
But the beats' still wild and your feet still ache

I say it's just another name for rock and roll
Everybody, everybody sing
It's just another name for rock and roll, rock and roll

Well you can do the duck, walk your dog down the street
Loop the loop to a swingin' beat
You can twist and shout and do the stomp
A chase a chicken on a pony romp ah but

It's just another name for rock and roll
Everybody, everybody sing
It's just another name for rock and roll, rock and roll

Well they all try to shake it another way
But they rock, they roll just the same

They only call it by another name
And I don't care what they say, woah, oh, oh

Down in the jungle where the tree tops are steep
They get the fever for a bongo beat
They do the Ubangi stomp, the safari hop
Do the monkey until they drop
Ah but it's just another name for rock and roll
Everybody, everybody sing
It's just another name for rock and roll
Everybody,everybody sing
It's just another name for rock and roll
Everybody,everybody sing...
