I woke up shouting and screaming From a dream that I had last night And I just couldn't work out the meaning for screaming But it gave me such a hell of a fright
There was Boney and Clyde and Big Louie Ma Baker and Babyface too And Al Capone called me on the phone And said Presley, what you going to do?
[Chorus] 'Cos everybody's doing the black bottom, black bottom Done all I can but I just can't stop 'em Doing the black bottom, black bottom They got me doing it too
