A-when your hands start a-clappin`
And your fingers start a-poppin`
When your feet wanna move around
And ya start to swing and sway
And the band begins to play
With a real cool way out sound
Then ya get the "can`t help-it`s"
And ya can`t sit down
Feel like ya wanna move `round an `round
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
With just a little rock n` roll on the side
Just for good measure
Need a pair of dancin` shoes
With your lover by your side
Don`t you know you`re gonna have a lot of pleasure
Don`t you worry about a thing
You start to dance and sing
And the chill bumps come up on you
Well, the beat`ll finally get you
When the beat gets you, too and
Here`s the thing for you to do
Hey, now, now, now
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
Well, just a little rock n` roll on the side
Just for good measure
Need a pair of dancin` shoes
With your lover by your side
Don`t ya know you`re gonna have a lot of pleasure
Don`t ya worry about a thing
Ya start to dance and sing
Then the chill bumps come up on you
Well, the rhythm finally gets you
When the beat get you too, now
Here`s the thing for you to do
Hey, now, now, now
Hey, now, now, now
Oh when, your hands start a clappin`
And your fingers start poppin`
When your feet wanna move around
Yeah, you start to swing and sway
And the band begins to play
With that real cool way out sound
Ya get the "can`t help it`s"
And ya can`t sit down
Feel like ya wanna move `round an `round
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
With just a little rock n` roll on the side
Just for good measure
Need a pair of dancin` shoes
With your lover by your side
Don`t ya know you`re gonna have a lot of pleasure
Don`t you worry about a thing
Ya start to dance and sing
And the chill bumps come up on you
Oh, the rhythm finally get you
When the beat get you too, now
Here`s the thing for you to do
Hey, now, now, now (get it)
Hey, now, now, now
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
Need a shot of rhythm and blues

Need a shot of rhythm and blues
(Oh Lord)
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
