You Cant Shake It In Here by Ray Logan Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now I took my girl to the swell cafe
And when the orchestra started to play
She wouldn't sit still anymore
Jumped up, shimmied up, down the floor
She had the whole place hypnotized
Spellbound and mesmerized
[?]
The manager stepped up and said
[Chorus]
"Oh Mr. Logan, won't you take her outside
'Cause you just can't shake it in here
That monkey motion is like the ocean
And it's makin' everyone feel queer"
Now she promised him whiskey, promised him beer
Promised him lovin' if he wouldn't interfere
"Oh Mr. Logan, won't you take her outside
'Cause you just can't shake it in here"
[Verse 2]
Folks, she was shakin' that thing
I mean shakin' that thing
Mr. Low-down-dirty thought her soul was cursed
He got religion, now he shakes it worse
Oh people, and they really can shake that thing
Moan it, sister Logan
[Verse 3]
Oh shake that thing, [?] now
Shake that thing
Said the devil got happy and he took one chance
He grabbed mama devil and began to dance
And all the other devils, they were shaking that thing
[?]
[Verse 4]
Now shake that thing
Oh shake that thing
Said the little, small kids [?]
Playing hooky from school just to shake that thing
[?] devil [?] shake that thing
[Instrumental Break]
Do it like a [?]
Lordy, Lord, Lord, Lord
[Chorus]
Now pretty mama, won't you take it outside
'Cause you just can't shake it in here
That monkey motion is like the ocean
Making everyone feel queer
Now she had a long razor and a gatlin' gun
Gonna cut me box back suit if I run
Oh pretty babe, won't you take it outside
Man said you can't shake it in here, take it out
You really can't shake it in here
Now I took my girl to the swell cafe
And when the orchestra started to play
She wouldn't sit still anymore
Jumped up, shimmied up, down the floor
She had the whole place hypnotized
Spellbound and mesmerized
[?]
The manager stepped up and said
[Chorus]
"Oh Mr. Logan, won't you take her outside
'Cause you just can't shake it in here
That monkey motion is like the ocean
And it's makin' everyone feel queer"
Now she promised him whiskey, promised him beer
Promised him lovin' if he wouldn't interfere
"Oh Mr. Logan, won't you take her outside
'Cause you just can't shake it in here"
[Verse 2]
Folks, she was shakin' that thing
I mean shakin' that thing
Mr. Low-down-dirty thought her soul was cursed
He got religion, now he shakes it worse
Oh people, and they really can shake that thing
Moan it, sister Logan

Oh shake that thing, [?] now
Shake that thing
