I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate

Armand J. Piron

I went to a dance with my sister Kate;
Everybody there thought she danced so great;
I realized a thing or two
When I got wise to something new:
When I looked at Kate, she was in a trance
And then I knew it was in her dance;
All the boys are going wild
Over sister Katie's style
Oh, I wish I could I shimmy like my sister Kate;
She shimmies like a jelly on a plate
My mama wanted to know last night
What makes the boys think Kate's so nice
Now all the boys in the neighborhood
They know that she can shimmy and it's understood;
I know that I'm late, but I'll be up-to-date
When I shimmy like my sister Kate
I mean, when I shimmy like my sister Kate
Now I can shimmy like my sister Kate
I know that I'm real late
I think I'll do a real shimmy dance
Dancing like my sister Kate
Sweet papa, just like my sister Kate
