Come On Do The Jerk - Smokey Robinson, The Miracles

Everybody now gather around

Get hip to the new sensation

There’s a brand new dance coming to your town

And sweeping across the nation

Come on do the jerk (Come on do the jerk)

Come on do the jerk (Come on do the jerk)

Now snap your back like a bullwhip crack

Now jerk your hip, let your backbone slip

You’ve done the Monkey, you’ve done the Twist

And the Mashed Potatoes too

The Swim and The Fly have all gone by

There’s a brand new dance for you

Come on do the jerk (Come on do the jerk)

Come on do the jerk (Come on do the jerk)

You’ve got to bob and weave

Come on bob and weave

And when you do

Let your neck snap too

Yeah, yeah, yeah

It’s alright

Well now jerk children jerk (jerk children jerk)

Come on jerk children jerk (jerk children jerk)

Well now jerk children jerk (jerk children jerk)

Well jerk children jerk (jerk children jerk)

Well now jerk to the left and jerk to the right

Jerk all day and jerk all night

Jerk it hard and jerk it soft

Jerk your hands and arms right off

Come on do the jerk in the morning (come on do the jerk)

Come on do the jerk right now (come on do the jerk)

Now snap your back like a bullwhip crack

Now jerk your hip, let your backbone slip

Yeah, come on do the jerk right now (come on do the jerk)

Everybody come on do the jerk right now (come on do the jerk)

Jerk children jerk (jerk children jerk)
