There Was A Time
Gene Chandler

One, two, three, four


There was a time

When I used to dance

There was a time

When I used to prance


Dig me now, baby, ha

Don't worry bout later, ha

Here's a dance I used to do

They call the mash potato, oh


Lookie here

There was a dance

They call the jerk

Everybody relax

And watch me work


All right, lookie here


In my home town

Up here with the boys

The name of the place

Is Chicago, Illinois


Up there, we have a good time

We don't talk, ha

Instead we all get together

Any type of weather

Then we do the camel walk, wow


All right, lookie here


Now there was a dance

That I used to do now

The name of the dance

They call the boogaloo, ha


I may not do the dance

As well as you, ha

But you can bet your bottom dollar

You'll never hear me holler

I'll do the best that I can do, wow


All right, lookie here


There was a time

Sometimes I danced

Sometimes I danced

Baby, sometimes I danced

Baby, baby, baby, yeah


They call me the woman handler

They call me the woman handler

But you can bet you

Haven't seen nothing yet

Until you've seen me do

The Gene Chandler, wow
