Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate

Went to a dance with my sister Kate;
Everybody there say she dance so great;
I realized one thing or two,
Then I got wise to something new
Ah I look at Kate, she was in a trance
Then I realize that it was in her dance
And all the boys are going wild
About my Katie's dancing style
Yeah, I wish I could I shimmy like my sister Kate;
She shakes just like jelly on a plate.
And my mama wanted mo' to know last night,
Why all the boys are think'n Kate's so nice.
An' all the other fella's in the neighborhood,
They know Kate can shimmy and it's understood;
Cuz' I might be late, but I'll be up-to-date
When I can shimmy like my sister Kate.
Yeah I wish I can shimmy like my sister Kate.
She shakes just like jelly on a plate.
And my mama wanted mo' to know last night,
Why all the boys are think'n Kate's so nice.
An' all the other fella's in the neighborhood,
Know Kate can shimmy and it's understood;
Cuz' I might be late, but I'll be up-to-date
When I can shimmy like my sister Kate.
Don't need no brother Jake
Shimmy like my sister Kate.
