Lyrics:
You put both hands in;
You put both hands out;
You put both hands in and you shake them all about;
You do the hokey pokey and you turn around;
And that's what it's all about.
You put your right leg in;
You put your right leg out;
You put your right leg in and you shake it all about;
You do the hokey pokey and you turn around;
And that's what it's all about.
You put your left leg in;
You put your left leg out;
You put your left leg in and you shake it all about;
You do the hokey pokey and you turn around;
And that's what it's all about.
You put your whole self in;
You put your whole self out;
You put your whole self in and you shake it all about;
You do the hokey pokey and you turn around;
And that's what it's all about.
Woah the hokey pokey;
Woah the hokey pokey;
Woah the hokey pokey;
And that's what it's all about.
