Everybody Do the Click lyrics

(Hey José—what did 'ya say?)

I said c'mon everybody, here is somethin' new.

It's a sound from Africa that's easy to do.

If you want to be happy and really sing,

it's the click—click—click that's the thing.

[followed by one line of scat nonsense]

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby do the click.

C'mon (c'mon), it's a real neat trick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby do the click.

C'mon (c'mon), ah, you can learn it real quick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon (c'mon), c'mon (c'mon—c'mon—c'mon).

Well, if the click starts to yield like it's gotten me,

here's the only way to do it easily.

Come up to your baby and say "Look here."

The click will make her grin from ear to ear.

Great for rockin', great for clickin', but have no fear.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby do the click.

C'mon (c'mon), it's a real neat trick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby do the click.

C'mon (c'mon), you can learn it real quick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon (c'mon), c'mon (c'mon—c'mon—c'mon).

[full verse of scat nonsense except for "c'mon pretty momma"]

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby do the click.

C'mon (c'mon), it's a real neat trick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon baby try the click.

C'mon (c'mon), you can learn it real quick.

C'mon (c'mon), c'mon (c'mon)—

everybody do the click—click—click—click.
