Shakin' street, it's got that beat
He pulled into town and met skinny leg Pete
Shakin' Street, where all the kids meet
Streetlight Sammy decided to make the trip
They take for the takin'
Their mamas all warned 'em not to come to town
Shakin' street, where all the kids meet
They ain't got no time to think about stoppin'
The folks keep complaining they find it so shockin'
Well the kids on shakin' street never give in
The shakin' street, it's got that beat
It got into their blood
And Bobby C. says he's gonna take her to
Shakin' street, it's got that sound
Shakin' street, it's got that sound
Gives 'em somethin' to do
You know that they're bad
And they shake for the shakin'
Shakin' street, say you gotta get down
Now they gonna get down
Now, I'm a about to flip, by just gotta know about
I heard about the place where all the kids go
All the kids wanna do is just keep on rockin'
Shakin' street, say you gotta get down
Shakin' street, where all the kids meet
Shakin' street, it's got that sound
You know that they're mad
Shakin' street, you gotta get down
'Cause all of their lives they've been livin' in sin
They gotta get down and do a little stompin'
All the way from New Jersey on his girlfriend's tip
Now Sally Baker wants to shake her shaker
Said, "Come here, boy, I heard about the streets"
The shakin' street, it's got that beat
Shakin' street, it's got that sound
Shakin', shakin', shakin'
Shakin' street, where all the kids meet
Shakin' street, it's got that beat
