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!
