I am real real cool
I got the jump got the jive
Got the message I'm alive
I'm a wild I'm wild one
Oh, yeah, I'm a wild one
I'm gonna keep a shakin'
I'm gonna keep a movin', baby
Don't you cramp my style
I'm a real wild child
Come on, baby
Shake all night long
Shake until the meat
Come off the bone
But I'm a wild one
Oh, yeah, I'm a wild one
I'm gonna keep a shakin'
I'm gonna keep a movin' baby
Don't you cramp my style
I'm real wild child
Well, I gonna pick you up in my 88
Get ready sugar now don't be late
We're gonna move it all night long
Until a whole lotta shakin' going be on
Well, I'm a wild one
Oh, yeah, I'm a wild one
I'm gonna keep a shakin'
I'm gonna keep a movin' baby
Don't you cramp my sytle
I'm a real wild child, whoa
Yeha, I really get to movin' when the sun goes down
Oh, after dark I can get around
Gonna move on I'll make every hop
When we start to boppin' now sure can't stop
I'm a wild one
Oh, yeah, I'm a wild one
I'm gonna keep a shakin'
I'm gonna keep a movin', baby
Don't you cramp my style
I'm a real wild child
I'm a real wild child
I'm a real wild child
I'm a real wild child
Watch out
