WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOIN' ON

Original Jerry Lee Lewis version



Come on over baby, whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Yes I said come on over baby, baby you can't go wrong
We ain't fakin', whole lotta shakin' goin' on

Well I said come on over baby, we got kickin' in the barn
Oooh huh, come over baby, baby got the bull by the horn
We ain't fakin', whole lotta shakin' goin' on

Well shake it baby shake

Well I said come on over baby, we got kickin' in the barn whose barn what barn my barn
Come on over baby, baby got the bull by the horn
We ain't fakin' it, whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Easy wow, shake it

You can shake one time for me
Do the hula hussy baby, whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Now let's get real low one time now
Shake it baby shake
All you gotta do honey is kinda stand in one spot
Wiggle around just a little bit
That's what you gotta do, yeah
Oh babe whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Now let's go one time
Shake it, baby shake
Shake it, baby shake
Oooh shake it, come on baby, shake it baby shake
Come on over, whole lotta shakin' goin' on
