[C][Ab][C][A][F][G][Em]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
Down in Georgia,
got a dance that's new,
Ain't nothin' to it, it's easy to do,
Called [F]"Shake [G]That [F]Thing,"[G]
[F]Oh, [C]shake that thi[D]ng![C]
I'm get[G]tin' sick and tired

[Verse 2]
of [Ab]telling
you to shake [G]that thing![C][G][C]
[D]Now, [G]the [C]old folks start doin' it,
the young folks, too,
But the old folks learn the
young ones what to do,
About [F]shakin' [G]that [F]thi[C]ng,
Ah, shake that thing!
I'm get[G]tin' sick and tired

[Verse 3]
of [Ab]telling
you to [G]shake [F]that thing![G][C]
[D]Now, [G]Grand[C]papa Johnson
grabbed Sister Kate,
He shook her like you
shake jelly on a plate,
How [F]he shook that thing,
Oh, [C]he shook that [G]thing![C][G]
[C]I'm get[G]tin' sick and tired of

[Verse 4]
[Ab]telling
[G]you to shake [Em]that thing![G][C]
[G]Why, there's old[F] Uncle Jack,[C]
[Gm]the [C]jellyroll king,
He's got a [Gm]hump [C]in his back
[Bb]from shakin' [C]that thing,
Yet, he still shakes [F]that thing,
For an old man,
how he [C]can shake that thing!

[Verse 5]
[C]And he never [G]gets tired of tellin' young
folks: go out and shake that [C]thing![G][F][Em]
[G]Now, it ain[C]'t no Charleston,
[G]ain't [C]no Pigeon Wing,
Nobody has to give you no lessons,
to shake that thing,
When everybody [F]can shake that thing,
Oh, I mean, [C]shake [Em]that [C]thing!

[Verse 6]
[Em]I'm gett[G]in' tired of telling
you [Ab]how to s[G]hake that thing!
[F]Oh, [G]oh,[C] wi[Em]th t[G]his [C]ki[Ab]nd of mu sic,[G][A]
who wouldn't [G]shake that [C]thing[F][C]
