So now we got something new. It's a dance anyone can do. Grandmama and grandpa too. Stop truckin' and Suzi-Q. . In Holland, in Paris too. Everybody knows what to do.
Big trouble in the meat house. And it's all about that stockyard fire. Big trouble in the meat house. And it's all about that stockyard fire. All of the poor people kickin'.

When you're out for a lovely evening. Forget about your daily blues. And rock it in rhythm, everybody's singin'. . When old man gloom is at you. I tell you just what to do.
