One, two, three, four
Five, six, seven, eight

Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo

There's a dance from Africa
That proved a boy a man
They did it with a flaming pole

From Africa to Virgin Isle
And on to USA
You simply take a bamboo pole
And then you're on your way
Hey, hey, hey

Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo

First you set the pole
About three feet
Then you wait for the band
To strike up the beat

Then you bend over backwards
With your hands off the ground
And you inch your way under
To the? sound

Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo

Hey, hey, hey

Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo

Now you've heard of
The Limbo dance
The rest is up to you

You simply take a bamboo pole
And you know what to do
Hey, hey, hey

Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo, limbo, limbo

Ahhh, limbo
