Now there’s a backseat, lover
That’s always undercover
And I talk ’til my daddy say
Said you ain’t seen, nothin’
Til you’re down on the muffin
And there’s sure to be a change in ways
Now there’s a cheer, leader
That’s a real big, pleaser
As far as I can reminisce
But the best thing, love it
Was her sister and her, cousin
And it started with a little kiss, like this
She starts, swingin’
With the boys in, tune
And her feet just fly up in the air
Singin’ hey diddle diddle with a kitty in the middle
And they swingin’ like it just don’t care
So I took a big, chance
At the high school, dance
With a lady who was ready to play
It wasn’t me she was, foolin
‘Cause she knew what was she was, doin’
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Well just gimme a kiss!
Ooh, a-like this!
School girl, sleazy
With a, classy kind of sassy
Little skirt hangin’ way up her knee
There were three young ladies
In the school gym, locker
And they find they were lookin’ D
I was high school, loser
Never made it with a, lady
Til a boy told me somethin’ I missed
That my next door, neighbor
Had a daughter, had a favor
And I gave the girl a little kiss, like this
She starts swingin’ with the boys in the school
With her feet flyin’ up in the air
Singing hey diddle diddle with a kitty in the middle
I was swingin’ like I didn’t care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a miss who was ready to play
Wasn’t me she was foolin’ ’cause she knew what she was doin’
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Well just gimme some head!
