Wah, wah-a Watusi

C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance

Wah, wah-a Watusi

Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance (shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)



Baby, baby, when you do The Twist

Never, never do you get yourself kissed

'cause you're always dancin' far apart

The Watusi, girl, is-a really smart



Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi

C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance (shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)



Baby, baby, when you do The Fly

Your arms are wasted wavin' in the sky

Come on and hold me like a lover should

The Watusi makes you feel so good



Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi

Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance

Yay!!



(shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)



Baby, baby, that's the way it goes

Nothing happens when you Mash Potatoes

I just gotta fall in love with you

Watusi is the dance to do



Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi

C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance



Wah, wah-a Watusi

FADE

Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance
