Peckin' - Original - Cab Calloway and His Orchestra

You talk about your truckin' when your peckin' is new

Well, here’s a dance that you all should do:

You get 'way low down to the floor

And if you peck once, you’ll peck twice, you’ll peck it some more

You peck to the front, to the sides, to the back

Well, look at old Jim, he’s pecking on his back!

Peckin' to me is a lot of fun

Well, you peck one, and I’ll peck one, well, we’ll all peck one!

It’s the dance we all should do

In the place of the Suzy-Q;

Well, come on folks, lend me your ears awhile

And I’ll guarantee you, your little tootsie-wootsies will sure run wild

You peck to the east, and then you peck to the west

Then you peck, peck, peck 'til you’ve pecked your best

Well, then okay, well, a-hey, hey

We’ll peck up, we’ll peck up, we’ll peck up the floor.

Yeah!
