Love Shack - B52's

When I was younger, me and a group of friends every year at the Labor Day festival at the Fraze would sing karaoke. No doubt, we always sang this song, and still to this day, it's still my go-to song when I'm forced to sing in front of people. It always brings good memories of summers with friends. Enjoy! 



Love Shack
By The B52's

If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says
15 miles to the, Love Shack! Love Shack yeah, yeah
I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway. 
Lookin' for the love getaway, heading for the love getaway.

I got me a car, it's as big as a whale 
And we're headin' on down to the Love Shack
I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20
So hurry up, and bring your jukebox money

The love shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love shack, baby
(A love shack, baby)
Love shack, baby, love shack
Love shack, baby, love shack

Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby, that's where it's at)
Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby, that's where it's at)

Sign says, "Stay away fools"
'Cause love rules at the love shack
Well, it's set way back in the middle of a field 
Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back

Glitter on the mattress
Glitter on the highway
Glitter on the front porch
Glitter on the highway

The love shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love shack, baby
(Love shack baby)
Love shack, that's where it's at
Love shack, that's where it's at

Huggin' and a kissin', dancin' and a lovin'
Wearin' next to nothing, 'cause it's hot as an over
The whole shack shimmies, yeah, the whole shack shimmies
They whole shack shimmies 
When everybody's movin' around
and around and around and around

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby
Folks linin' up outiside just to get down
Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby
Funky little shack, funky little shack

Hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale
And it's about to set sail
I got me a car, it seats about twenty
So come on and bring your jukebox money

Oh, love shack is a little old place 
Where we can get together
Love shack, baby
(A love shack, baby)
Love shack, baby, love shack
Love shack, baby, love shack

Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby, that's where it's at) 
Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby, that's where it's at)

Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
(Knock a little louder baby)
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby 
(I can't hear you)

Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
(Knock a little louder sugar)
Bang, bang, bang, on the door baby 
(I can't hear you) 

Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
(Knock a little louder)
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
Bang, bang
(On the door, baby)

Bang, bang
(On the door)
Bang, bang
(On the door, baby) 
Bang, bang, you're what? Tin roof, rusted.

Love shack, baby, love shack
Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby that's where it's at, yeah)

Love shack, baby, love shack
(Love baby that's where it's at) 
Love baby, love shack 
(Huggin' and a kissin')
(Dancin' and a lovin' at the love shack!)
