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 the little tambourine

Shake a-ring a jing -jing a-ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

| | | % |

Shake 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 the little tambourine

Shake a-ring a jing -jing a-ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

| | | % |

Shake 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 the little tambourine

Shake a-ring a jing -jing a-ling

Shake, shake my little dancin' queen

| |

Shake that tambourine, that tambourine
