When you hear sweet syncopation
And the music softly moans
T`ain`t no sin to take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
When it gets too hot for comfot
And you can`t get an ice cream cone
T`ain`t no sin to take off your skin
And dance around your bones
Just like those bamboo babies
Down in the South Sea tropic zone
T`ain`t no sin to take off your skin
And dance around your bones
