Jack Hartmann in the house
I’ve got the beat, do the new Hokey Pokey, Dance with me
Chorus
Jump forward, jump back
Get your groove right on the track
Clap, clap boys and girls Hokey Pokey round the world
Put your right arm in you put your right arm out
Put your right arm in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
You put your left arm in you put your left arm out
You put your left arm in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
You put your right leg in you put your right leg out
Put your right leg in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
You put your left leg in you put your left leg out
You put your left leg in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
(Repeat Chorus)
Now put your right hip in you put your right hip out
Put your right hip in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
You put your left hip in you put your left hip out
You put your left hip in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
Now put your whole self in you put your whole self out
Put your whole self in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
Put your whole self in you put your whole self out
Put your whole self in and you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about
Slide left slide right
Let the beat take you up high
Clap hands with a friend
Hokey Pokey never ends
