Mama, come here quick,
and bring me that lickin' stick.
People standin',
standin' in a trance.
Sister out in the backyard
doin' a out-of-sight dance.
Come tellin' me the other day,
she didn't wanna be a drag.
I don't know what she's doin',
I think she's got a brand new bag.
Mama, come here quick,
and bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
and bring that lickin' stick.
Judy don't kill me
with his lazy strokes
Wouldn't take his feet
right off the ground
Doin' the mashed potatoes
and then he begin to slide
Call his self doin' the James Brown
Sista says the dance you doin'
is the latest thing
People now begin to talk
She jump back in
With that soulful stride
Baby, now she's doin the camel walk
Mama, come here quick,
and bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
and bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
and gimme me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
and bring that lickin' stick.
Maceo, alright, bring yo lickin stick
lickin stick
lickin stick
lickin stick
lickin stick
lickin stick
