Shake That Thing - The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

Crying out loud said a face in the crowd

Can you hear me talkin'

The river was dry that was why

I’m on the road and walking

A man on a horse with a box on his head

He was sayin' to the Nation

He pay him dues the goodbye blues

Is simple syncopation

And then I told my story to the cannibal king

Said Shake That Thing

Go and see the frogman and tell him

All your troubles

Take your umbrella cause he

Keeps on blowing bubbles

Come up and let me analyse you

Said the monkey to the weasel

And I’ll paint your picture on the wall

If you can buy the easel

And I told my story to the cannibal king

Said baby baby shake that thing

Once upon a sunshine

Before the final bell

I told my story to big boy

With connections straight from Hell

His fiddle was his sweetheart

He was her favourite beau

And hear me saying was all he playing

Them songs from long ago

I told my story to the cannibal king

Said baby baby shake that thing

Too late too late

Can be the cry

So take it if you need it

Theres no such thing as a dirty book

Its just the way you read it

So goodbye baby I’ll see you soon

Its gotta be that way

So bury me not on the lone prairie
