feel pretty good...


"I always believed that you need the full band in the studio at one time to record great records because they play off of each other, like a basketball team."

~~ Rick Hall, American record producer




Type in on Google,

Wilson Pickett, Land of 1000 Dances,

and Play.


One, two, three

One, two, three!

Ow!  Uh!  Alright!  Uh!

Got to know how to Pony,
Like Bony Moronie

Mash Potato
Do the Alligator

Put your hands on your hips, yeah
Let your backbone slip
Do the Watusi
Like my little Lucy

Ow!  Uh!



Na, na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na
Na-na na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na
Need somebody help me say it one time!
Na, na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na
Na-na na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na

Wow!
Ow!
Uh!
You know I feel alright?
Hah!
Feel pretty good, y'all
Uh-hah!

Na, na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na
Na-na na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na
C'mon y'all, let's say it one mo' time!
Na, na-na na-na
    Na-na na-na
Na-na na-na na-na
   Na-na na-na

Ohh!

Dancin' in the alley
With Long Tall Sally
Twistin' with Lucy
Doin' the Watusi
Roll over on your back
I like it like that
Do that Jerk, oh
Watch me work, y'all

Ow!  Do it!
Wow!  Do it!
Watch me do it
Ohh, help me!
Ohh, help me!
Ohh, help me!
Ohh, help me!...
