Everybody's doing the 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,
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me...

You've gotta swing your hips now,
Come on baby, jump up, jump back...
Well I think you've got the knack,
Whoa whoa...

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now,
Come on baby, do the locomotion...
A chugged, chugged, motion like a railway train now,
Come on baby, do the locomotion...

Do it nice and easy now don't loose control,
A little bit of rhythm and a lotta soul,
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me...

Oh yeah...
Do the locomotion...
Do the locomotion...
Yay, yay, yay, yeah...

Move around the floor in locomotion,
Come on baby, do the locomotion...
Do it holding hands like 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 feelin blue,
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me...

You've gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well I think you've got the knack
Whoa, whoa

Everybody's doing the brand new dance now,
Come on baby, do the locomotion...

A little bit of rhythm and a lotta soul,
So come on, come on, do the locomotion...
