Ah, you can talk a-bout the pit, bar-be-que
The band was jump-in' the peo-ple too
Ah, mess a-round
They do-in' the mess a-round
They do-in' the mess a-round,
ev-'ry-bo-dy do-in' the mess a-round
Ah, ev-'ry-bo-dy was juiced, you can,
bet your soul they did the boo-gie-woo-gie,
with a stea-dy roll they mess a-round
They do-in' the mess a-round
They do-in' the mess a-round,
ev-'ry-bo-dy do-in' the mess a-round
Now, ah, when I say stop don't you move a peg
When I say go, just ah, shake your leg
And do the mess a-round
I de-clare, do the mess a-round
Yeah do the mess a-round,
ev-'ry-bo-dy's do-in' the mess a-round
Now let me have it there boy
