C#            F#
Everybody get on your feet,
C#                           F#
you make me nervous when you in your seat,
C#                      F#
take off your shoes and pat your feet,
C#                      C#7
we're doin a dance that can't be beat.

      F#                 C#
We're barefootin', we're barefootin',

we're barefootin', we're barefootin'.

#2.
C#                  F#
Went to a party the other night,
C#                  F#
Long Tall Sally was out of sight,
C#                          F#
threw away her wig, and her high sneakers too,
C#                       C#7
she was doin a dance without any shoes.

CHORUS:
        F#                   C#

she was barefootin', she was barefootin'.

Hey, little gal with the red dress on,
C#                     F#
I bet you can barefoot all night long,
C#                      F#
take off your shoes and throw them away,
C#                     C#7
come back and get them another day.

CHORUS:
      F#                 C#
We�re barefootin', we�re barefootin',

Lil John Henry he said to Sue,
