Start Skanking

You better move your feet, to the Skalatones beat:
START SKANKING!
You better get ready, to this moving Rocksteady:
START SKANKING!
You better start to move, to this real hot groove:
START SKANKING!
You better watch out, when we sing and shout:
START SKANKING!
Come on you rudies and listen to this
We must keep on fighting racial prejudice
So come on you black and come on you white
Keep on skanking until you feel alright!
START SKANKING!
START STOMPING!
START SKANKING!
START STOMPING!
Are you rady to move, are you ready to groove
START SKANKING!
Skank to the east and skank to the west
If you like the music, can you feel the bluebeat
Skank to the left and skank to the right
Hit the dance floor and feel the heat... and
START SKANKING!
START STOMPING!
START SKANKING!
START STOMPING!
