Lyrics
It used to be the good old days when records were long played
It used to be some good times when music made you feel like flying
I remember the dances that the old folks left behind
There was the chicken, the twist
The Hully Gully was a favorite of mine
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
Dancing was something I never ever thought I could do
But when they Hully Gully, I got the message right on cue
I can shake my shoulders like a Honolulu woman do
But when they changed the dances, I could never quite follow through
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
Say if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
I went to see Bo Diddley and I took a fellow with me
He thought I was a dancer, for sure I was a prancer on the double
We got out on the floor, did the breakdown and turned around
But I was doing the Hully Gully, a-shakin' like a natural clown
Said if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
It used to be some good times when music made you feel like flying
I remember the dances that the old folks left behind
There was the chicken, the twist
The Hully Gully was a favorite of mine
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
Dancing was something I never ever thought I could do
But when they Hully Gully, I got the message right on cue
I can shake my shoulders like a Honolulu woman do
But when they changed the dances, I could never quite follow through
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
Say if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
But if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
I went to see Bo Diddley and I took a fellow with me
He thought I was a dancer, for sure I was a prancer on the double
We got out on the floor, did the breakdown and turned around
But I was doing the Hully Gully, a-shakin' like a natural clown
Said if you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
If you can Hully Gully, I can Hully Gully too
