Shuffle and Go

Shuffle and go, shuffle and go
Better than a foxtrot, quick or slow
Craving rock and roll on the old banjo
With his blue suede shoes and his shuffle and go

Factory whistle blowing right on time
No more working that assembly line
Time for a pint and he feels just fine
Wash off the sweat and the grime

Boy in the mirror, what a handsome bloke
Better than the rest not a pig in a poke
Looking for love and that's no joke
But better not tell the old folk

Drapes and quaff are all in place
Old Spice splashed on a fresh cut facе
Putting on a tie of the old boot lace
Creepеrs and a 30 inch waist

Dancehall jiving down at the Palais
Out for a smoke in the old back alley
Better than the flicks and the old Aunt Sally
Just get up and shuffle and go

That’s how they got together in a council flat
Baby on the way and a wedding after that
More love than you could fit into an old cocked hat
All thanks to the shuffle and go

Drapes and quaff are all in place
Old Spice splashed on a fresh cut face
Putting on a tie of the old boot lace
Creepers and a 30 inch waist

Drapes and quaff are all in place
Old Spice splashed on a fresh cut face
Putting on a tie of the old boot lace
Creepers and a 30 inch waist

Sweep her off her feet before she’d know
“Summertime Blues” in the winter snow
With his blue suede shoes and his shuffle and go
