He's been boppin' all around
In this ole world he's livin' fast
Someday I'm afraid he's gonna run outta gas
So if you're travelin' that way, too
I tell you, friend, what you better do
Chorus:
Ya gotta stop, look and listen
Hey, ya don't know what you're missin'
Ya gotta stop, look and listen
'Cause ya might be missin' kissin'
If you're trav'lin' slow, you'll go a long, long way
Now, Farmer Jones, he came to town
And saw that boppin' all around
He learned to do it, there's no doubt
I'm afraid someday he'll burn his motor out
So if you're travelin' that way, too
I tell you, friend, what you better do
Repeat chorus
First came the boogie, then the bunny hop
Now the rhumba, samba, then the bop
Well, I don't know what's a-comin' next
But this ole world's in a terrible fix
So if you're travelin' that way, too
I tell you, friend, what you better do
Repeat chorus
Ya gotta stop, look and listen
Ya gotta stop, look and listen
Ya gotta stop, look and listen
Ya gotta stop
Well, I know a cool cat from way downtown He's been boppin' all around In this ole world he's livin' fast Someday I'm afraid he's gonna run outta gas So if you're travelin' that way, too I tell you, friend, what you better do Chorus: Ya gotta stop, look and listen Hey, ya don't know what you're missin' Ya gotta stop, look and listen 'Cause ya might be missin' kissin' If you're trav'lin' slow, you'll go a long, long way Now, Farmer Jones, he came to town And saw that boppin' all around He learned to do it, there's no doubt I'm afraid someday he'll burn his motor out So if you're travelin' that way, too I tell you, friend, what you better do Repeat chorus First came the boogie, then the bunny hop Now the rhumba, samba, then the bop Well, I don't know what's a-comin' next But this ole world's in a terrible fix So if you're travelin' that way, too I tell you, friend, what you better do Repeat chorus Ya gotta stop, look and listen Ya gotta stop, look and listen Ya gotta stop, look and listen Ya gotta stop Explain Request ×
