Lyrics

Well I know you heard of Suzy-Q And I know you heard of the chicken too I know you heard of the cha-cha-choo Cause the walk is a dance that you can do You just walk, you just walk Oh you walk, yes you walk Yeah you walk, it has to walk Well I know you heard of the Texas Hop I know you heard of the old Fox Trot But when you do The Walk You ride each car You just shake your hips and close your eyes And then you walk, yeah you walk Then you walk, oh you walk, ah you walk Oh yes you walk Do the walk, boys! [Instrumental] Well I know you heard of the old mambo And I know you heard of the old congo But when you do the walk You're startin to get close And don't step on your partners toes! You just walk, yeah you walk, then you walk Yes you walk, oh you walk, just the walk Now if you don't know what it's all about Come to me and I'll show you how Well do it fast, well do it slow Then you'll know the walk everywhere you go You can walk, and you walk, now you walk You gonna walk, you gotta walk it Just a walk Just a walk Just a walk Just a walk
