Everybody's doin' the brand new dance now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)

My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learnin' your ABC
So come on, come on and do the locomotion with me

You've gotta swing your hips now baby
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you've got the knack
Woah, woah

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
A chugga, chugga, motion like a railway train now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)

Do it nice and easy now don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on and do the locomotion with me

Oh yeah
Do the locomotion
Do the locomotion
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Move around the floor in a locomotion
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
Do it holdin' hands like you got the notion
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)

There's never been a dance that's so easy to do
It even makes you happy when you're feelin' blue
So come on, come on and do the locomotion with me

You've gotta swing your hips now baby
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you've got the knack
Woah, woah

Everybody's doin' the brand new dance now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)
I know you'll get to like it, if you give it a chance now
(Come on baby, do the locomotion)

Do it nice and easy now, don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on and do the locomotion
Come on, come on, do it with me

The locomotion, come on, come on
The locomotion, come on, come on
The locomotion, come on, come on
The locomotion, come on, come on

The locomotion, come on, come on
The locomotion, come on, come on
The locomotion, come on, come on
Do the locomotion with me
