If |
It used to be them good old days when records were long plays; |
It used to be some good times when music made you feel like flyin'… |
I remember the dances that the old folks left behind: |
It was the chicken, the twist — the Hully Gully was a favorite of mine… |
Well, if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
Dancin' was somethin' I never ever thought I could do |
But with the Hully Gully, I got the message right on cue; |
I could shake my shoulders like a Honolulu woman do |
But when they changed the dances, I could never quite follow through… |
Well, if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
Said if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
Ow! |
Yeah, if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
I went to see Bo Diddley, and I took a fellow with me; |
He thought I was a dancer, thought fo' sho' I was a prancer on the double… |
He got out on the flo', did the breakdown, and turned around |
But I was doing the Hully Gully, a-shakin' like a natural clown… |
Said if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too… |
