The New York Glide Lyrics

The New York Glide lyrics

Everybody's going crazy 

 About the different dances of the day; 

 Everybody in this whole entire world 

 Is trying to learn the dance and sway; 

 Here's one dance you ought to learn, 

 It's something simply grand; 

 Now folks, it is so simple 

 Anyone can understand. 

 And if you'll take a chance, 

 I'll show you how to do this dance: 

 

 Just grab your partner 

 'Round the waist, 

 Hook her lightly 

 In her place, 

 Just lay back and do the shimaree, 

 Buzz up to your baby like a bumblebee. 

 Then lay back and do that eagle rock; 

 Please, professor, don't you ever stop, 

 Swing your partner, then you slide; 

 That's the New York Glide! 

 

 You can all have your tickle toe, 

 I mean, that's a dance you can do, 

 But if you should once see this dance, 

 I know that you would be amused; 

 Anywhere you hear this tune, 

 It sneaks up on your mind; 

 And if you love good music, 

 Why, you're going to keep in time; 

 And when you hear that band, 

 You'll say this dance is simply grand! 

 Just grab your partner 

 'Round the waist, 

 Pull her lightly 

 In her place; 

 Just lay back and do the shimaree; 

 Buzz up to your baby like a bumblebee. 

 Then lay back and do that eagle rock; 

 Please professor, don't you ever stop; 

 Swing your partner, then you slide; 

 That's the New York Glide!
