LOCOMOTION

by Gerry Goffin and Carole King



Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now

Come on baby do the locomotion

I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now

Come on baby do the locomotion



My little baby sister can do it with ease

It's easier than learning your ABC's

So come on, come on do the locomotion with me



You gotta swing your hips now

Come on baby jump up jump back

Oh well, I think you've got the knack



Now that you can do it let's make a chain now

Come on baby do the locomotion

Chug-a-chug a motion like a railroad train now

Come on baby do the locomotion



Do it nice and easy now and don't lose control

A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul

Come on, come on do the locomotion with me



Move around the floor in a locomotion

Come on baby do the locomotion

Do it holdin' hands if you get the notion

Come on baby do the locomotion



There's never been a dance that's so easy to do

It even makes you happy when you're feeling blue

Come on, come on do the locomotion with me
