Downtown Git Down
It’s the Downtown Git Down, now!How ya do, Hootie Hoo!
I once had a dog named Hootie HooOne eye brown, the other sky blueDisappear for days like you-know-whoCome back limpin’ with a scar or two
Some said he was fightin’, some said he was runnin’Still to this day, ain’t nobody know nothin.Had a nose for sin and a tail for the tuneHe’d howl at the bar and bark at the moon
Do the downtown git down — how ya do? Hootie Hoo!Dance around, stomp them bootsRight leg out, now the other one inSwitch it up, hell yeah, do it again!
Grab your girl, spin ‘er ‘roundBend her over, and go to town!We’re all just tryin’ to git down —The downtown git down!
Followed that dog through the deep bayouHe stopped, looked back — like he always knewSaid, “Boy, you best keep up with me”Then he vanished clean through the cypress trees
Snout like a dobi, heart like a houndToo slick for the leash but still pound-boundPaid the lady twenty bucks for his bailThat dog winked once, and we hit the trail
Do the downtown git down — how ya do? Hootie Hoo!Dance around, stomp them bootsRight leg out, now the other one inSwitch it up, hell yeah, do it again!
Grab your girl, spin ‘er ‘roundMake some noise, and stomp that ground!Where all he wanted was to git down — The downtown git down
We go ridin’ wild, kickin’ up the midnight mileLaughin’ like outlaws, hearts runnin’ wildBoots in the dust, lips in a smileOh, we live this life country-style
I wanna do, I wanna do-do-doYeah, I wanna do the doggie with youSwing on by, we’ll get it rightWe’ll doggie-doggie till the morning light
Git down, git down, all night longClap your hands to the Hootie Hoo songSlide, kick, turn, now do-si-doThat dog’s the legend of the downtown show!
Heidi-hydi, hydie-hoWe’re off to the dog and pony show!How ya do, Hootie Hoo!— Downtown Git Down, y’all!
