C

Excuse me, sweetheart.

old new dance?
Dm

The
C

Electric
Dm

Here we go, here we go

Here we go, here we go
Dm
C

Here we go, here we go
Dm

Here we go, here we go

Dm

Oh yeah, that's right everybody,
C
Dm

on the dance floor, on the dance floor, yeah.
C

Grandmaster

Slice in the deep shell with

another swinger
Dm
C
Dm

You're the little electric slide here
C

So party people,
Dm
C

come on everybody and do your part

This jam is for the old,

young, and young at heart

Let's groove and move your body,

swing it now and let's party

It's not overhyped,

but it's not lottie -dottie

Your body's in battle and

your feet off the weapon

So charge the dance floor and then

start steppin'

This is for all age groups,

wallflowers, and plants

So what you waitin' for?
Dm
Dm

Come on, we dance?
C
Dm
Dm

Dm

Come on, y 'all,
Dm
Dm

shall we dance?
C

Dm
C

Now, wherever you are when

you hear this song
Dm
C

You have to tap your feet or hum along

But before you know it,

you'll be steppin' proud
Dm
C

Movin' and groovin'

and singin' out loud

The tempo is tough and the rhythm

is swingin'

And when you think about my song,

you'll be singin' it
Dm

Go side to side, back and forth,

and just spin around
C

Change directions and whip and skip

Don't jump around like you

got ants in your pants

Get on the dance floor,
Dm

come on, shall we dance?
C

The 1990s are upon us, so

what's in store?

Is this funky

French song and a whole lot more

Let's go round and round like coffee

being stirred

Grandmasters like some

Izzy chillin', new household words

We got everybody rockin' and
Dm

everybody talkin'
C

Even your grandma bought her a woman

To listen to my music

when she gets the urge

This is where my song hits her ears

like a power surge

Electricity runs all through her veins

Like a runaway freight

train which contains

Juice to get loose as we entertain

No strain on your brain so you

won't go insane

You're filled with a beast that's
Dm

gonna put you in a trance
C

Get on the jam floor, come on,
Dm
Dm
Dm

shall we dance?


Yeah
Dm
C
Dm

Come on, everybody, shall we dance?
Dm
C

Yeah
Dm

C
Dm

Now, let's do this dance you selected,
C
Dm
C

but make sure that it's electric, if it's not
Dm
C

I'll disconnect it, check it's perfected and then correct it,

now let's go is what I cried,

it's time to do the electric slide,

the beat

Izzy's cuing it, the dance
Dm
C

I'm do ing it, if

you wanna learn it then start reviewing it,

a few easy steps, hop, skip and a turn, everybody

And it's kinda easy to learn

to make it rain

Indians used to do a rain dance

Now they do the electric slide

every chance they get

From dusk to dawn

Now instead of little showers,

they get thunderstorms

All together now,

like we're at a big rally

Come on, let's dance,
Dm

shall we?

Dm
C

Come on y 'all,
Dm
Dm
Dm

shall we dance?
C

Get your electric slide.
Dm

Get your electric slide.
C

Get your
Dm

that I got everybody out there
C

on the dance floor
Dm

doing an electric slide,
C

I want to see who can do the slide
Dm

the best.
C

And if you can do it so good,

then you can do it with your

eyes closed.

So on the count of three,

I want everybody to close your
Dm

eyes and start stepping.
C

Is everybody out there ready?

Come on, kick it.

1, 2, 3.

Break it down.

Do that dance, do that, do that,

do that, do that dance.
Dm
C

Do that, do that, do that,
Dm

do that dance
C

Do that, do that dance, do, do, do that dance.

Philadelphia's favorite,

Maryland's melody.

It's the song of the south,

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
