Let's Start the Dance Lyrics

The message is in the music!
Now if you're ready, the band's got the notion
Do what your rhythm and get in motion
Shimmy, shimmy, coco, bop
You're rocking with the Doc
(Come on and do it
Come on and do it
Come on and do it, do it, do it
Come on and do it)

(Come on and do it
Come on and do it
Come on and do it, do it, do it
Come on and do it)

Well now, it looks like the big fun has just begun

(Well, I've been watching you all night
Don't you wanna dance?
Don't you wanna dance?)

Tang, tang, a-boogie a-bang
Let's rock the house, let's shock the house
Boom, boom, shake your room
Let's rock the house, let's shock the house

All night, alright
Don't stop, don't stop, don't block the Doc

Shake a boom-boom
Shake a tang-tang
Shake a boom-boom, tang-tang, rubbitum-tum
Go bang that thang to the beat of the drum

(Everybody, get on up and dance
Get on up, yeah
Yeah)

(Ain't you tired of sitting down?
Get on up and dance, hey, well)
Now if the rhythm's make you wanna dance and sing
And otherwise do your thing
(Come swing to the music
Ooohooo, ooohooohooo)

(This ain't your funky show)

Hey now, we like to say that it's not a question of getting down
But actually how low you can go
So here's to your health, now express yourself
Bohannon, make it funky

(Come on and do it
Come on and do it
Come on and do it, do it, do it
Come on and do it)

(Come on and do it
Come on and do it
Come on and)

(Come on and do it
Come on and do it
Come on and do it, do it, do it
Come on and do it)
The whole house starts rockin'
And the drummer starts sockin'
That entire wall-flower out of that chair

Get up off the wall, y'all
Kick those feet up and set them down
Don't be ashamed, don't be shy
Come on, girl, come on, guy

(Everybody, well, stand up and shout
Ohoho, ohoho, well!
That's what you got to do, yeah)

(Get your body goin'
Inside and out, yeah
Just dance
Shout with the music, yeah)

(Ohohohoho!) She'll be comin' 'round the mountain
When she comes long-strokin'
Set this smokin' flame high, dark to the light, big moon

Said-a yum, yum, gimme some
A tang-tang, a-boogie-bang
Let's rock the house, let's shock the house
(You got to get down)

Music! (Yeah!)
For the soul of man
And the heart of woman

(Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!)
