Hanky Panky Lyrics

My baby does the hanky panky

I saw her walking on down the line,
you know I saw her for the very first time,
a pretty little girl standing all alone,
hey, pretty baby, can I take you home
I never saw her, never ever saw her.

My baby does the hanky panky

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song put one of the greatest pop groups of the sixties on the map! Launched an amazing career for TJ.

I think it's about taking a girls virginty and bragging about it, telling all the guys what's up, cause they might be suprised that girly get's down like that

I remember a night back in late 2003...almost 2004...I was dating this chick, and she and I had been together for a month...and she was like I wanna do something for you...A few minutes later, we were in the back seat of my sports car...and well, things "went down" back there...use your imagination...but this song was playing as things were happening. It was fun way to celebrate a month together...following a night of drinks.
