Every boy running and the little girl ?cheer? At the money took up in their hand Over the wall and down into the street Give your money to the hollerin' man Give your money to the hollerin' man Every boy runs for Hokey Pokey Hear him ringing on the ice-cream bell He's got the stuff that'll cool you right down It's the best that they ever did sell It's the best that they ever did sell Girl on the corner with the tight dress on You know she don't know nothing so fine Feels so good when you put it in your mouth Sends a shiver all down your spine Sends a shiver all down your spine "Cat got your tongue?" says Frankie to Annie "Girl, you haven't said a word all night" Well, Annie she smiled and she took another bite Hokey Pokey made her feel alright, alright Hokey Pokey made her feel alright Well, some like it round and some like it flat And some like a poke or two But everybody runs for Hokey Pokey It's the natural thing to do It's the natural thing to do Down in the prison, number nine lying down Been working like a bee in a hive He's still dreaming of Hokey Pokey Helps to keep that boy alive Helps to keep that boy alive Watchman he says to choirboy Rocky "Don't you sing to the boys in blue? Oh, you won't get no more Hokey Pokey By the time we're through with you By the time we're through with you" Fellows in the alley all look like girls With their lipstick and their high-heeled shoes Feel so pretty and the boys all say That they know just what to do That they know just what to do
