If you see my baby, Lord, standing round
Somebody, Lord, must be shakin' on down
Lordy, must I holler, must I shake 'em on down!

If you come to my house, Lord, you don't find me round
Somebody, Lord, must be shakin' on down.…

Put your needle down, baby, let your backbone move!
Ain't no one in town can shake it down like you.…

Me and my woman went round the hill to get some ice
We found time to shake 'em down twice.…
