Shake the little tambourine

Shake a ring, a jing, jing a ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

Shake that tambourine, that tambourine I can hear them dancing, in the marketplace

Swishin' and a swirlin', in their' silks and lace

Bracelets keep a clinking, on their tiny feet

And with their tambourines they keep the beat Rings on their fingers, bells on their toes

They make music, wherever they go

Pound that little drum now

Tap on it with your thumb Shake, shake the little tambourine

Shake a ring, a jing, jing a ling, ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

That tambourine, that tambourine I heard their talent open palace doors

Every night they're dancin', on those marble floors

Kings may bow before them, but they'll be my own

Then they'll shake their thing for me alone Rings on their fingers, bells on their toes

They make music, wherever they go

Pound that little drum now

Tap on it with your thumb Shake, shake the little tambourine

Shake a ring, a ring, ring a ling, ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

That tambourine, that tambourine Rings on their fingers, bells on their toes

They make music, wherever they go

Pound that little drum now

Tap on it with your thumb Shake, shake the little tambourine

Shake a ring, a ring, ring a ling, ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

That tambourine, that tambourine
