Verse 1
Well I saw her at the diner in her polka-dot dress,
She said “hiya daddy-o” and I gotta confess,
My heart went bip-bam, rickety-boom,
She snapped her fingers and lit up the room
Chorus
Bip bam baby, sha-la-la-lee,
Dance with me under that ol’ oak tree,
Bip bam baby, doo-wop-a-do,
Ain’t nobody swing quite the way you do!
Verse 2
Rode up in a Chevy with the top rolled down,
Radio blastin’ all around the town,
She said “hold on tight now, don’t you dare let go,”
And we hit that highway, man, we stole the show
Chorus
Bip bam baby, sha-la-la-lee,
Dance with me under that ol’ oak tree,
Bip bam baby, doo-wop-a-do,
Ain’t nobody swing quite the way you do!
Bridge (spoken, over a sax riff)
Now hold up, hold up — everybody clap your hands now, one two — that’s it, keep it right there —
Final Chorus (big finish)
Bip bam baby, sha-la-la-lee,
You’re the only girl for me,
Bip bam baby, doo-wop-a-doo-wop-a-doo-wop-a-DO!
