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-a-ling-a-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-jing-a-ling-a-ling
Shake,shake my little dancin’ queen
That tambourine, that tambourine
