#1. 
E 
Hey, pretty baby, (You can't sit down.)  

Don't you hear the drummer thumpin'? (You can't sit down.) 
                 A 
You gotta shake it like a crazy, (You can't sit down.)  
                 E 
Cause the band is sayin' something. (You can't sit down.)  
         B 
Everybody is a-jumpin', (You can't sit down.)  
                E 
You gotta slop, bop, flip- flop, Hip-hop, all around.  

Chorus: 
 E 
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down.)  

You gotta move, move, move, around and 'round. 
         A  
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down.)  
                E 
You gotta fly, fly, fly, way off the ground.  
            B                     A 
They're puttin' down, a crazy sound.  
                   E 
No, no, you can't sit down,  

No, no, you can't sit down.  

#2. 
E 
When you're on South Street, (You can't sit down.) 

And the band is really bootin', (You can't sit down.)  
                     A 
You hear the hippy with the back beat, (You can't sit down.)  
              E 
And you see the gang a-groovin', (You can't sit down.)  
          B 
Gotta get your bottom movin', (You can't sit down.)  
                 E 
You gotta make it, break it, shake it all around.  

Chorus: 
  
#3. 
E 
Yeah, yeah, hey, pretty baby, (You can't sit down.)  

A-don'tcha really dance divine now, (You can't sit down.)  
                    A 
You're really shakin' like a-crazy, (You can't sit down.)  
     E 
A-don'tcha never leave the line now, (You can't sit down.) 
              B 
A-gonna do it one more time now, (You can't sit down.)  
                 E 
You gotta slop, bop, flip- flop, hip-hop, never stop.  

Chorus:(x2) 


A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
