A Shot of Rhythm and Blues

A Shot of Rhythm and Blues - Arthur Alexander

Well if your hands start to clappin'

And your fingers start to poppin'

And your feet start to movin' around

And if you start to swing and sway

When a band starts a play

A real cool 'n way out sound

And if you get the can't help it's

And you can't sit down

You feel like you gotta move around

You need a shot of rhythm and blues

With just a little rock and roll on the side

Just for good measure

You need a pair of dancin' shoes

With your lover by your side

Then you know

You're gonna have a lot of pleasure

So don't you worry 'bout a thing

When you start to dance and sing

And chill bumps come up on you

And when that rhythm finally hits you

When the beat gets you through

Well here's the thing for you to do

Get a shot a rhythm and blues

With just a little rock and roll on the side

Just for good measure

Get a pair of dancin' shoes

With your lover by your side

Then you know

You're gonna have a lot of pleasure

So don't you worry 'bout a thing

If you start to dance and sing

And chill bumps come up on you

And when that rhythm finally hits you

When the beat gets ya though

Well here's the thing for you to do

Get a shot a rhythm and blues

With just a little rock and roll on the side

Just for good measure

Get a pair of dancin' shoes

With your lover by your side

Then you know

You're gonna have a lot of pleasure

So don't ya worry 'bout a thing
