Hey girl!
When ya' swish and sway
In your yellow dress
'Cross the crowded room
Boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom
Hey girl!
Freckles on your arms
Freckles on your face
Can't we find a place
In a crowded room, we go
Boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom)
Boom (chicka-boom, chicka-boom-boom)
Boom chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka-chicka-chicka-boom)
A-hey, girl!
I'm goin' away
But I'm comin' back
With a ginger cat
What'd ya think a-that?
Hey girl!
I'm goin' away
But I'm comin' back
By the railroad track
Where the trains go by
And we sang and cry in gloom
Boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom)
Hey, girl!
(Chicka-boom, chick-a boom-boom)
When ya' swish and sway
(Chicka, chicka, chicka-boom)
In your yellow dress
'Cross the crowded room, boomÊ
Boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom)
Boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom)
Chicka-chicka, boom
Chicka-boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka, chicka, chicka, boom)
Chicka-chicka, boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka, chicka boom)
Chick-chicka-boom
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom-boom)
Chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Chicka, chicka, chicka-boom
Chicka, chicka, chicka-boom
(Chicka boom, chicka-boom)
Chicka boom, chicka-boom
(Chick-a boom, chicka-boom)
Chick-chick-chick-chick-chick-chick
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom-boom)
Chicka-boom, chicka-boom, chicka-boom-chick
(Chicka, chicka, chicka-boom)
Chicka-boom, chicka-boom
(Guitar solo fades to end)
(Chicka, chicka, chicka-boom)
(Chicka-boom, chicka-boom)
