They got all kinds of dances, the waltzes and the bop
Here's one thing buddy, I know they ain't got
It's called the Swinging Boogie, for you swing and you sway
You'll do the Swinging Boogie till your dying day

You walk up to the jukebox, slip that nickle in
You'll like that old record as it starts to spin
They do the Swinging Boogie with a shuffle beat
Come on now buddy, shuffle those doggone feet

You're out on the dance floor, your mind is in a trance
Trying to get the hang of that brand new dance
It's called the Swinging Boogie with a shuffle beat
Come on now buddy, shuffle those doggone feet
Now rock it!

Come on swing, swing, swing and sway
Come on swing, swing, swing and sway
Come on swing, swing, swing and sway
Yeah, swing, swing, swing and sway
You'll do the Swinging Boogie till your dying day
