The Shake - The Elms

When the week is done and the evening sun

Is sinkin' back into the hills

Well, the neon lights start flickerin' on

And the roadhouse starts to fill

You can bet your ass by ten o’clock

It’ll be all that you can take

To squeeze inside with the girls and guys

Who come out to do the shake

Shake it 'til you can’t shake it out no more

Do it 'til your feet come off the floor

Put a little shake in your rattle and roll

Shake it 'til you can’t shake it out no more

The air is thick with the sweat and smoke

Comin' off everybody’s skin

And the rhythm grows in people’s bones

Like it’s comin' from within

Don’t come out here lookin' just to chill

Or to sit down and take a break

The only thing to try 'round here tonight

Is get up and do the shake

Shake it 'til you can’t shake it out no more

Do it 'til your feet come off the floor

Put a little shake in your rattle and roll

Shake it 'til you can’t shake it out no more

We’re all the same when we come out here

Don’t matter who your daddy is

What side of the street that you grew up on

Don’t count for anything

Come down alone, or with a friend in tow

Just get down here for god’s sake

Bring folding money and a pack of smokes

And get down here and shake

Shake it out
