Sock‑Bop Shuffle

Lyrics

[Intro] Bop Bop Bee Bop Shoo-bee doo-bee Doo-wop Shoo-bee doo-bee doo-bee doo-bee Muh-muh muh-muh muh-muh muh-muh Shoop-bah-bee-bop gather round Hey now, hey now! Hey now now! [Verse 1] Friday bell and the school doors swing You drop your books to hear the jukebox sing Bobby socks and your hair just right Meet me by the gym at a quarter past five [Call and Response] Lead: You got your shoes? Group: We got our shoes! Lead: You know the steps? Group: We know the moves! Lead: Then take my hand— Group: We’re ready to go! [Chorus] Sock hop, bee bop, slide across the floor Heel-toe, heel-toe, turn and ask for more Hop to the left, now stroll to the right Keep those feet a-flying till they call goodnight [Verse 2] Buddy’s at the doorway, grinning ear to ear Jojo’s got a pom-pom and she’s leading the cheer They tap each other For one quick spin Bee boppin honey Let's go again [Call and Response] Lead: Can you stroll? Group: Down the line! Lead: Can you bop? Group: Doing fine! Lead: One more turn— Group: Don’t let it slow! [Chorus] Sock hop, bee bop, slide across the floor Heel-toe, heel-toe, turn and ask for more Hop to the left, now stroll to the right Keep those feet a-flying till they call goodnight [Bridge] Take a little step, now bring it back Swing your partner, til the sun comes back When the band breaks down, clap twice, then spin Find your friends and jump back in! [Final Chorus] Sock hop, bee bop, slide across the floor Heel-toe, heel-toe, turn and ask for more Hop to the left, now stroll to the right Keep those feet a-flying till they call goodnight [Outro] Goodnight, goodnight, shoes in your hand We’ll meet next Friday with the same old band Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, sock hop!
