The Loco-Motion Lyrics

Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
My little baby sister can do it with ease,
It's easier than learnin' your ABCs.
So, come on, come on, and do The Loco-Motion with me.


You've got to swing your hips now,
Oooo ...
Come on,
Oooo ...
Come on.
Jump up,
Oooo ...
Jump up.
Jump back,
Oooo ...
Jump back.
Oh, well, I think you've got the knack.
Oooo ...


Woah ... woah.
Now that you can do it, well, let's make a chain now.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
A chuga-chuga motion like a railroad train, now.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
Do it nice and easy now, and don't lose control,
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul,
So, come on, come on, and do The Loco-Motion with me.


Woah ... woah.
Move around the floor in a loco-motion.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
Do it holdin' hands if'n you get the notion.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
There's never been a dance that's so easy to do,
It even makes you happy when you're feelin' blue.
So, come on, come on, and do The Loco-Motion with me.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
So, come on, come on, and do The Loco-Motion with me.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
So, come on, come on, and do The Loco-Motion with me.


Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
Come on baby, do the Loco-Motion.
