I'm a bow-legged chick and I'm a knock-meat
He'd never been so happy since I don't know when
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Hear a tune on a fiddle on a hardwood floor
Oh, I'm broke and I'm weary and my back is sore
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Put your toes together, your knees apart
Bend your back, get ready to start
Flap your elbows just for luck
Then you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck
Dance with me, honey, tap your toes and blot
And we'll always be together side by side
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Tennessee quick walk
I'm a bow-legged chick and I'm a knock-meat
He'd never been so happy since I don't know when
He'd never been so happy since I don't know when
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Hear a tune on a fiddle on a hardwood floor
Oh, I'm broke and I'm weary and my back is sore
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Put your toes together, your knees apart
Bend your back, get ready to start
Flap your elbows just for luck
Then you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck
Dance with me, honey, tap your toes and blot
And we'll always be together side by side
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Walk with a wiggle, wiggle with a walk
And you're doing the Tennessee quick walk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
Doing the Tennessee quick walk
