Lyrics:

That's right, that's right, I'm sad and blue
'Cause I can't do the boogaloo
I'm lost, I'm lost, can't do my thing
That's why I sing, gimme, gimme dat thing
Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme dat thing, one more time
Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme dat thing
What good's a metronome without a pawpaw ring?
That's right, that's right, no tambo
How well can anybody ever tell he swing?
Oh, how can he tell, huh?
How can you tell the rhythm written on the bars?
Oh, written on the bars
How can you ever hope to know just where you are?
Oh, how can you hope at all?
Gimme dat (Gimme dat)
Gimme dat (Gimme dat)
Gimme dat, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme dat thing
Rat, ta, ta, ta
Rat, ta, ta, ta
Rat, ta, ta, ta, ta
A doodley, pa, pa, pa, ta, ta
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa
Oo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme dat thing
Oh, what good's a metronome without a pawpaw ring?
Oh, yeah, that's right, you might ask
How well can anybody ever tell he swing?
Oh, how can you tell, huh?
How can you tell the rhythm written on the bars?
Oh, you see, it's all
How can you ever hope to know just where you are?
Gimme dat (Well, I wanna know, well, I wanna know)
Gimme dat (Yeah, well, gimme some of dat)
Gimme dat, gimme dat (Aruba, Aruba)
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat thing, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme dat thing
That's right
