Shout You Cats

Went to a dance last Sat'day night,
And what I mean this dance was tight,
Given by a man named Lovey Joe,
In a small room 'bout two by four.
And in this room they was thick as bees,
You could hardly tell the he's from the she's,
And when the band began to play,
I could hear them say,

"Ohhhh shout you cats,
Do it, stomp it, step you rats,
Shake your shimmies, break a leg,
Grab your gal and knock 'em dead.
Ohhhh, come on an' do that thing,
Hey, hey, everybody sing. "
It got so good they threw away they hats,
I could hear 'em hollerin', "Shout you cats. "

In came the cop 'bout half past four,
I thought for sure we was booked to go,
He said, "Everybody fall in line, "
They kept on dancin' paid him no mind.
A great big fella 'bout six foot tall,
Grabbed the cop and slammed him up against the wall,
The cop said "Buddy, everything OK,
Listen to what I say. "

"Ohhhh shout you cats,
Do it, stomp it, step you rats,
Shake your shimmies, break a leg,
Grab your gal and knock 'em dead.
Ohhhh, come on an' do that thing,
Hey, hey, everybody sing. "
