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 A B C's
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you got the knack, oh-oh
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 railway train now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
Do it nice and easy, now don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
Yeah-ay
Move around the floor in a locomotion
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
Yeah, do it holding hands if you got 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
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
Yeah-ay
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
Yeah-ay
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
Yeah-ay
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me
