We were rippin up, we were rockin up,

roll it over and lay it down.

we were shakin up, we were breakin up,
                                 
we were rockin to the shang-a-lang sound of the music,
     
HEY, HEY! rockin to the music!
     
HEY, HEY! rocking to the music!
                       
rockin' every night and day..HEY HEY!

CHORUS:
                                
well, we sang shang-a-lang as we ran with the gang,
                          
doin', doo wop be dooby do ay.
                                
we were all in the news with our blue suede shoes,
                           
and our dancin the night away.
                                
Yeah, we sang shang-a-lang as we ran with the gang,
                          
doin', doo wop be dooby do aye,
                             
with the jukebox playing and everybody saying that
                       
music like ours couldn't die.

we were grooving, we were movin'

pussyfootin' and booting it round.

we were boppin it, we were hoppin it,
                                  
we were jumping to the shang-a-lang sound of the music...
                                    
Hey, hey, rocking to the music..hey, hey rockin' to the music,
                       
Rockin' every night and day.
