If I could shimmy like my sister Kate
Shake it like a bowl of jelly on a plate
My momma wanted to know last night
How sister Kate could do it oh so nice
Now all the boys in the neighborhood
Knew Katie could shimmy and it's mighty good
Well I may be late but I'll be up to date
When I can shimmy like my sister Kate
Oh, yeah shimmy like my sister Kate
If I could shimmy like my sister Kate
I'd never stay home stay out too late
I get my stuff about as high as a kite
You know I do it for you every night
Now all the boys in the neighborhood
Knew Katie could shimmy and it's mighty good
Well I may be late but I'll be up to date
When I can shimmy like my sister Kate
Oh, yeah shimmy like my sister Kate
