Lyrics of Do the Funky Chicken by Rufus Thomas,Carla Thomas
Y′all come on in now, come right on down front
I got something I want to show you
Now y'all heard of the popcorn, y′all heard of the dog
You heard about all your other dances
But now there's a brand new dance that's going around
I want to show you exactly what I′m talking about
I′m talking about the funky chicken, y'all ready?
I say y′all ready, okay, here we go
You raise the left arm up and your right arm too
Let me tell you just what to do, start both of 'em to flapping
Start your feet to kicking, that′s when you know
You doin' the funky chicken
Slick and spasm, you put both arms up, across your face
You knees start wiggling, all over the place
You flap your arms and your feet start kicking
Then you know you doin′ the funky chicken
Oh, I'm feeling it now, I feel so unnecessary
This is the kind, this is the kind of stuff
To make you feel like you want to do something nasty
Like waste some chicken gravy on your white shirt
Right down front, here we go y'all
You work both arms and you work both feet
Use a dab of gravy, you right on the beat
You flap your arms and your feet start kicking
Then you know, you doin′ the funky chicken
Doin′ the funky chicken, y'all
Doin′ the funky chicken, y'all
Doin′ the funky chicken, y'all
...
