Lyrics
Old New Orleans is a great big old southern town, where hospitality you will surely find
The population there is very, very fair, with ev'rything they do
White folks do it too, they have a dance surely it's something rare there
Glide, slide, prance, dance, hop, stop
Take it easy honey, hmm
I can never git tired of dancin' those Hop Scop Blues
Once more you glide, slide, prance, dance
The Hop Scop Blues will make you do a lovely shake
They'll make you feel so grand when you join hand in hand
I'll never get tired of dancin' those Hop Scop Blues
Once more you glide, slide, prance
I said dance, oh, hop, now stop
Take it easy honey! Ooh
Yeah, I can never get tired of dancin' those Hop Scop Blues
Look out now, you glide, slide
I said prance, dance
Hop Scop Blues will make you do a lovely shake
They'll make you feel so grand when you join hand in hand
I'll never get tired of dancin' those Hop Scop Blues
