Shake that thing !!!!

Rockhill Catbowl CBG, Foor Drums,....

(Just a shaking that thang!)

Dedicated to Clock, Nancy Kat, James, RTZ and Uncle John the regular shakers..
and anyone else who believes in having some fun..

It's louder on Youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQAL9cN0q0M&feature=youtu.be

Not quite the words but nearly:

Now, the old folks doin' it, the young folks, too,
But the old folks learn the young ones what to do,
About shakin' that thing,
Ah, shake that thing!
I'm gettin' sick and tired of asking you to shake that thing!

Now, it ain't no Charleston, or a chicken Wing,
all you goto do
is shake that thing,
shake that thing!
I'm gettin' tired of telling you how to shake that thing!
Oooh, oooh, with this kind of music, who wouldn't shake that thing?

Now, Grandpapa Johnson jumped the gate,
He shook her like you shake jelly on a plate,
How he shook that thing,
Oh, he shook that thing!
I'm gettin' sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing!

Now, it ain't no Charleston, or a chicken Wing,
all you goto do is
shake that thing,
Oh, I mean, shake that thing!
I'm gettin' tired of telling you how to shake that thing!
Oooh, oooh, with this kind of music, who wouldn't shake that thing?

Granpa joe, the jellyroll king,
He's got a hump in his back from shakin' that thing,
Yet, he still shakes that thing,
For an old man, how he can shake that thing!
And he never gets tired of tellin' young folks: go out and shake that thing!

Now, it ain't no Charleston, or a chicken Wing,
all you goto do is
shake that thing,
Oh, I mean, shake that thing!
I'm gettin' tired of telling you how to shake that thing!
Oooh, oooh, with this kind of music, who wouldn't shake that thing?

"Shake That Thing,"
Oh, shake that thing!
I'm gettin' sick and tired of telling you to shake that thing!

There are various version of this Jug song
lyrics out there.. this is Bugs melody and not the original, as I have no idea how it goes!.
