**Style:** Classic 1950s Doo-wop.
**Tempo & Rhythm:** Medium swing, 124 bpm. Soft shuffling four-on-the-floor with backbeat on 2 and 4.
**Arrangement:**
* **Bass:** Thick upright double bass (pizzicato). Walking bass line pulse.
* **Drums:** Snare brushed with wire brushes, soft kick only on the one.
* **Guitar:** Clean semi-acoustic chunking chords on beats 2 and 4.
* **Vocals:** Lead tenor switching to falsetto. Tight backing quartet answering with jazzy "doo-wop" clusters.
* **Middle Eight:** Sparse piano block chords or a single-note electric guitar run enters.

Текст песни
**(Intro — Slow tempo, bass vocal "Ooo-wop, ooo-wop...")**
[Verse 1]
(Lead)
Hey there, baby, don't you hear that brand new beat?
(Mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm...)
Oh yeah, the guys are singin' it so sweet.
(Doo-wop, doo-be-doo...)
That ain't no high-class symphony in C,
(Bah-bah-bah, wop-wop-wop)
It's a lovin' song from me to my honey bee.
So let's slow-drag, baby, underneath the moon,
(Slow down low...)
Act like you're made of velvet, doll, real soon.
(Glide on by...)
Just slide your feet across the ballroom floor,
(Ahhh-a-ooo-wop)
That's what we're steppin' for.
[Chorus]
(Everybody — Backing Vocals become rhythmic and prominent)
Everybody two-step, grab your baby tight,
(Wop-wop-wop-wop, hold her tight!)
Everybody sway now, through the pale moonlight,
(Ooo-wop, sha-lang-a-lang)
Shake it easy, darlin', with all your might,
(Ooo-yeah, ooo-woo-woo)
Everybody two-step through the night.
If you feel the rhythm like a polar bear,
(Everybody does it, nobody oughtta care!)
Just a-wiggle-wobble, then you take a bow,
(Come on, come on, everybody do it now!)
[Verse 2]
(Lead)
Oh, my little darlin', nestle close to me,
(Yeah-eah-eah, right next to me...)
Just put your pretty hand where it's s'posed to be.
(Right 'round my glove...)
When I start to spin you 'cross the shiny hall,
(My-my-my, gonna dance some more...)
Baby, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to fall.
I've got a lovesick feeling, deep down in my soul,
(Put your love right here...)
Just plant your tootsies, let the good times roll.
(In the band...)
Then you'll start to swayin' to the soft guitar,
(Doo-wop, sha-lang-a-lang)
Ain't we comin' far?
[Chorus]
Everybody two-step, grab your baby tight,
(Wop-wop-wop-wop, hold her tight!)
Everybody sway now, through the pale moonlight,
(Ooo-wop, sha-lang-a-lang)
Shake it easy, darlin', with all your might,
(Ooo-yeah, ooo-woo-woo)
Everybody two-step through the night.
If you feel the rhythm like a polar bear,
(Everybody does it, nobody oughtta care!)
Just a-wiggle-wobble, then you take a bow,
(Come on, come on, everybody do it now!)
**(Outro — Fade out)**
Yeah, step now...
(Ooo-wop, doo-be-doo-wop)
Hold her tight...
(Ooo-wop, sha-lang-a-lang)
Through the night...
(Fade...)
