Okay gentlemen and gals let start to party.
\nIf you’re not all ready, I’m really sorry.
\nOkay now let’s start with the drums,
\nLet’s see where old Charlie is coming from.
\nOh yeah, listen to him play,
\nThis is rock’in Charlie’s way.
\nNow lets get down to the lead guitar,
\nOh yeah he will tell us where we are.
\nNow lets get this going in one small step
\nDon’t pull my stop, for I haven’t slept.<\/p>\n

This song is called, “a thing called bumping”
\nThis is how it goes, shake your legs left to right,
\nMove your bodies, bump with all your might.
\nOh take it easy now nobody wants to get hurt
\nLoosen up your ties, unbutton your shirts.
\nNow you bump to your left you bump to your right
\nYou bump you bump through the night
\nNow take your partner give a little dip
\nNow offer a drink but give her a sip.<\/p>\n

Now back to the dance floor bumping your way
\nYou guys are doing perfect that’s where you stay
\nHey you, yes the two of you.
\nGo to the dance floor I’ll show you what to do.
\nOk now you ready? Let’s go shimmy shimmy from head to toe
\nThrough your head back gently, just so.
\nGo round and round with both of your hands,
\nThis is “a thing called bumping, “You’ll start to understand.<\/p>\n

Ok now shimmy shimmy to the left and now the right
\nFeel all your muscles getting tight?
\nOh yeah that’s the best part of having fun,
\nNow this thing, “Called bumping” has only begun.
\nNow move your body this way and back
\nNow do your bumping slowly as a matter of fact
\nBump, bump, bump, now stop
\nShimmy shimmy a hell of a lot
\nNow start kicking your feet into the air,
\nLook at me on the stage, so as I so if you dare.<\/p>\n

I bend my knees and than I come up and do a twirl,
\nI look pretty silly doing this without my girl
\nNow I’m bumping my hips left to right
\nOh yeah my friends this is out of sight
\nNow shimmy shimmy bump bump now find a chair
\nTake a rest come back to the floor if you dare.
