The Wall Street Shuffle Lyrics
[Chorus]
Do the Wall Street shuffle
Hear the money rustle
Watch the greenbacks tumble
Feel the Sterling crumble
[Verse 1]
You need a yen to make a mark
If you wanna make money
You need the luck to make a buck
If you wanna be a Getty, Rothschild-
You've gotta be cool on Wall Street
You've gotta be cool on Wall Street
When your index is low
Dow Jones ain't got time for the bums
They wind up on skid row with holes in their pockets
They plead with you, buddy can you spare a dime
But you ain't got the time
[Refrain]
Doin' the....
Doin' the....
[Verse 2]
Oh, Howard Hughes
Did your money make you better?
Are you waiting for the hour
When you can screw me?
Cause you're big enough
[Chorus]
To do the Wall Street Shuffle
Let your money hustle
Bet you'd sell your mother
You can buy another
[Refrain]
Doin' the....
Doin' the....
[Verse 3]
You buy and sell
You wheel and deal
But you're living on instinct
You get a tip
You follow it
And you make a big killing
[Outro]
On Wall Street
Do the Wall Street shuffle
Hear the money rustle
Watch the greenbacks tumble
Feel the Sterling crumble
You need a yen to make a mark
If you wanna make money
You need the luck to make a buck
If you wanna be a Getty, Rothschild-
You've gotta be cool on Wall Street
You've gotta be cool on Wall Street
When your index is low
Dow Jones ain't got time for the bums
They wind up on skid row with holes in their pockets
They plead with you, buddy can you spare a dime
But you ain't got the time
Doin' the....
Doin' the....
Oh, Howard Hughes
Did your money make you better?
Are you waiting for the hour
When you can screw me?
Cause you're big enough
To do the Wall Street Shuffle
Let your money hustle
Bet you'd sell your mother
You can buy another
Doin' the....
Doin' the....
You buy and sell
You wheel and deal
But you're living on instinct
You get a tip
You follow it
And you make a big killing
On Wall Street
