The Hokey Pokey

You put your right foot in,

You put your right foot out;
You put your right foot in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your left foot in,

You put your left foot out;
You put your left foot in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your right hand in,

You put your right hand out;
You put your right hand in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your left hand in,

You put your left hand out;
You put your left hand in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your right side in,

You put your right side out;
You put your right side in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your left side in,

You put your left side out;
You put your left side in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your nose in,

You put your nose out;
You put your nose in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your tail in,

You put your tail out;
You put your tail in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your head in,

You put your head out;
You put your head in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your whole self in,

You put your whole self out;
You put your whole self in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey-Pokey,

And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!
