FLAT FOOTIN' IT

It started in Roanoke a little while ago
A brand-new dance that you ought to know
They call it flat-footin' and it sure looks fine
Right now it's flat-footin' it time

And you'll be flat-footin' it, flat-gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is until you hear that guitar pickin'
it--pick it!

Just let your arms hang right where they are
Then you'll start flat-footin' it, eight to the bar
Turn yourself loose, all the law will allow
And you're doing that flat-footin' it now

And you'll be flat-footin' it, flat-gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is until you hear that drummer pickin'
it--pick it!

It started in Roanoke and came a long way
Now it's a flat-footin' it U.S.A.
Good for your spirit and good for your health
You oughta try a little flat-footin' yourself

And you'll be flat-footin' it, flat-gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is until you hear that bass fiddle pickin'
it--pick it!

Well, all of the students at the university
Shocked and amazed the existing faculty
Some dropped biology and some cut their math
To enroll in a flat-footin' it class

Flat-footin' it, flat-gettin' it
You don't know just how good it is until you hear that band a-pickin'
it--pick it!
