Scatman John - Scatman's Dance Lyrics

Everybody do the Scatman's dance
(Dee at da dee dah)
Get the rhythm feel it in your hands
(Dee at da dee dah)

[Scatting by Scatman John]

Hey everybody get together let's move
To a different kinda rhythm and a brand new groove
Step in the light, all we got is tonight
There's a shadow on the dance floor waiting for you

Move it up, move it down to the ground
Move it in, move it out to the Scatdance sound
Dance for your mama, dance for your wife
When you dance you express the beauty in your life

I read in the paper, there's a cure for the blues,
It happens when you dance and you take off your shoes.
Scat right here - I'll really make it clear
[Scatting]...My dear

[JOHN & GIRLS:] Everybody do the Scatman's dance
(Da da da dee da da ta da)
Get the rhythm feel it in your hands
(Dee at da dee dah)

[Scatting by Scatman John and girls]

[JOHN:] Out of sight beautiful, check out your moves
Shake it, don't break it to the Scatdance groove
You be lookin' good and I think you really should
Pack up your bags and move to Hollywood

Cut it loose, give it up, let go
Make it move to da middle of da night...

[Scatting]...Let's go!
