     My little baby sister can do it with ease, 
          F               D
    it's easier than learnin' your ABC, 
        C                 G                     C
    so come on, come on, do the locomotion with me ! 
 
                  F                  - F
    You've gotta swing your hips n.ow, 
                    C
    come on baby, jump up, jump back ! 
              G                          G7

       F                    D
    a little bit of rhythm and a lotta soul ! 
     C                    G                      C

    There's never been a dance that's so easy to do,
