When the Band Was Singin' (Shakin' All Over) Songtext
von The Guess Who

Well now they started Skinny Minnie and it turned to Ginny Ginny
With the Dizzy Miss Lizzy Blues,
She smiled while we were strollin′ and I knew that I was rollin'
Had to tell my big buddy the news.

It′s not the magic
It's not the music
It's not the moonlight
I don′t know when I felt like this before,
About ten years time ago...
When the band was singin′ "Shakin' All Over"
When the band was singin′ "Shakin' All Over"

Well now they gave us Juicy Lucy and we did the Watusi
In a rockin′ pair of blue suede shoes,
What she don't know won′t hurt her even though I might desert her
Got to tell my best buddy the news.


It's not the magic
It's not the music
It′s not the moonlight
I don′t know
I think I've only felt like this one time before,
About ten long years ago...
When the band was singin′ "Shakin' All Over"
When the band was singin′ "Shakin' All Over"

It′s not the magic
It's not the music
It's not the moonlight
I don′t know
I think I′ve only felt like this one time before,
So long ago that I can hardly remember...
When the band was singin' "Shakin′ All Over"
When the band was singin' "Shakin′ All Over"
