Lyrics

Come here sister, Papa's in the swing He ain't too hip about that new breed, babe He ain't no drag Papa's got a brand new bag Come here Mama and dig this crazy scene He's not too fancy but his line is pretty clean He ain't no drag Papa's got a brand new bag He's doing the Jerk, he's doing the Fly Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potato, Jump back Jack See you later, alligator Come here sister, Papa's in the swing He ain't too hip, now but I can dig that new breed, babe He ain't no drag He's got a brand new bag Oh Papa! He's doing the Jerk Papa, he's doing the Jerk He's doing the Twist just like this He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night The thing like the Boomerang Hey, come on Hey, hey come on Hey, hey, he's set you up tight You're outta sight Come on, see what you know Come on, see what you know
