Shake That Tambourine

Shake... the little tambourine
Shake a ring a ding ding a-ling
Shake, shake my little dancing queen
Shake that tambourine, that tambourine

I can hear them dancin', in the marketplace
Swishin' and a-swirlin', in their silks and lace
Bracelets keep a-clinking, on their tiny feet
And with their tambourines they keep the beat

Ah rings on their fingers, bells on their toes
They make music, wherever they go
Pound that little drum now, tap on it with your thumb

Shake, shake the little tambourine
Shake a ring a ding ding a-ling
Shake,shake my little dancin' queen
...that tambourine, that tambourine

I heard their talent opened palace doors
Every night they're dancin', on those marble floors
Kings may bow before them, but they'll be my own
Then they'll shake their thing for me alone

Ah rings on their fingers, bells on their toes
They make music, wherever they go
Pound that little drum now, tap on it with your thumb

Shake, shake the little tambourine
Shake a ring a ding ding a-ling
Shake,shake my little dancin' queen
...that tambourine, that tambourine
Uh hmm, uh hmm
