There was a day, there was a time
When I used to play
There was a time when I used to play
But take me now, baby, don't worry about later
Teach the dance I used to do
They call it the Mashed Potato
There was a day, now dig this
There was a day, they call it the Jerk
Everybody relax and watch me work
Ooohhh
In my hometown where I used to stay
The name of the place, hah, is Augusta, GA
Down there we have a good time
We don't talk, hah
We all get together in time, for rhythm with you
So come and walk, hoo
Lookey here, dig this.
There was a day that I used to do
The name of the dance
They call it Boogaloo
I may not do the dance as well as you, hah.
But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar
That you never hear me holler
I do the best that I can do, ooh
There was a time, sometimes I dance, lookey here
Sometimes I dance, sometimes I clown
But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet
Until you see me do the James Brown, hoo
