Everybody, get on your feet
You make me nervous when you in your seat
Take off your shoes, and pat your feet
We're doin' a dance that can't be beat
We're barefootin', we're barefootin'
We're barefootin', we're barefootin'

Went to a party now the other night
Long Tall Sally was out of sight
Took off her wig and her high sneakers, too
She's doin' a dance without any shoes
She's barefootin', yeah, she's barefootin'
She's barefootin', oh now, she's barefootin'

Hey, little girl, with the red dress on
I bet you can do it all night long

Take off your shoes, and throw them away
Come back and get them another day
She's barefootin', oh now, she's barefootin'
She's barefootin', hey hey, she's barefootin'

'Lil John Henry, he said to Sue
If I was barefootin', would you barefoot, too?
Sue told John "You know, I've started, too"
I've barefootin' ever since I was two
They're barefootin', love, love, they're barefootin'
I'm barefootin', hey, hey, I'm barefootin'

Hey, we're barefootin'
We're barefootin', yeah, we're barefootin' now
We're barefootin', oh love, we're barefootin'
