-lyrics


verse 1:
    
Come here sister.....Papa's in the swing 
He ain't too hip...about that new breed babe 
He ain't no drag 

chorus: Papa's got a brand new bag 

verse 2:

Come here mama....and dig this crazy scene 
He's not too fancy....but his line is pretty clean 
He ain't no drag 

chorus: Papa's got a brand new bag 

interlude: 

He's doing the Jerk.... 
He's doing the Fly 
Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy 
He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potatoes, Jump back Jack, See you 
later 
alligator

verse 3:

Come here sister 
Papa's in the swing 
He ain't too hip now 
but I can dig that new breed babe; 
He ain't no drag 

chorus: He's got a brand new bag 

verse 4:

Oh papa! He's doing the Jerk 
Papa...he's doing the Jerk 
He's doing the twist ... just like this, 
He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night 

chorus:

The thing's....like the Boomerang

interlude:

Hey....come on 
Hey! Hey.....come on 
Hey! Hey....he's put tight...out of sight... 
Come on. Hey! Hey! (fade out)

Notes: -Through out the entire song the chords are played
        one at a time and then a pause, so it is
        chord-pause-chord-pause and so on. The only part
        that isn't is the end part of the verse.
       -Also all of the chords in the first part of the 
        verse are "Fret Hand Muted"
        For Beginning Guitarists, Basically right after you 
        play the chord just lift your fingers off the fret 
        just enough to stop the note vibration.
