Splish Splash

Splish-Splash, I was takin' a ba-ath, long about a Saturday ni-ight

Rub-a-dub-dub, just relaxin' in the tu-ub, thinkin' everything was alright

Well I stepped out of the tub, put my feet on the floo-oor

Wrapped the towel around me and I opened the door

But then Splish-Splash, I jumped back in the bath

Well how was I to know there was a party goin' on

I was splishin' and a-splashin', I was a-rollin' and a-soulin'

I went movin' and a-groovin', I got to reelin' with the feelin'

I was a-splishin' and a-splashin', movin' and a-groovin'

How was I to know there was a party goin' on

Bing-Bang, I saw the whole ga-ang, dancin' on my livin' room ru-ug

Flip-flop, they was doin' the bo-op, everybody had the da-ancin' bu-ug

Was a-Lollipop with Peggy Sue, Good Golly Miss Molly was a-even there too

Then splish-splash, I forgot about my bath

I went and put my dancin' shoes o-on

I took to splishin' and a-splashin', went a-rollin' and a-strolllin'

I went to movin' and a groo-oovin', I went to reelin' with the feelin'

I went a-splishin' and a-splashin', movin' and a-groovin'

Went and put my dancin' shoes o-on

Oh, splashin' one time baby, that's my baby

Splishin' and a-splashin', went to rollin' and a-strollin'

I got to movin' and a groovin', I went a-reelin' with the feelin'

I was a-splishin' and a-splashin', a-movin' and a-groovin'

Went and put my dancin' shoes o-on

I went to splishin' and a-splashin', I get to rockin' and a-rollin'

I went to reelin' with the feelin', I went to dancin' on the ceilin'

I took to splishin' and a-splashin', rollin' and a-soulinc12
