Song Lyrics
Chorus

Dorothy (Dorothy), would you like to dance with me?

Dorothy (Dorothy), would you like to dance with me?

First you take your hands and you put them on your hips.

Sway from side to side and let your back bones slip

Chorus

Next you turn your head, turn it from side to side.

Then you shake your hands, it's really out of sight.

Chorus
