|

|
|

|

|

|
|
And then they dance it through and through,
|
They look for records they can do it to,
|
They got a dance was outta sight,
|
Doin' the lion sleeps tonight.

|
They dance alone or in a big boss line,
|
And they discovered it's the most, man,
|
The day they did it to Please Mr. Postman.
