Here's a dance you should know
 -3  -3    3    -2   2    4
When the lights are down low
 -4   -3  3  -2   2   4
Grab your ba-by, then go
3   3   -3 -2*  3    3   3   -3  -2  2
Do the Huck-le-buck  Do the Huck-le-buck

Start a lit-tle move-ment 
-3 -2*   4  4  -3-2* 3

 3   3   -3 -2*  3
Wig-gle like a snake 
 3   3   -3 -2*  3
Wad-dle like a duck

when you do the Huck-le-buck
