There was a day, there was a time.

There was a time, when I used to play

There was a time, when I used to play

But take me now, baby, don't worry about later.

Teach the dance I used to do, They call it the Mashed Potato

break

                                    There was a day,

back in my hometown. where I used to stay

The name of the place is Augusta, GA

Down there we have a good time, We don't talk

We all get together in any kind of weather

We all get together in any kind of weather

We all get together in any kind of weather

break

Feeling good, ..feeling good,

Feeling good, ..feeling good

Feeling good, ..feeling good

Feeling good, ..feeling good

There was a day that I used to do

The name of the dance, They call it Boogaloo

I may not do the dance as well as you

But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar, That you never hear me holler I do the best that I can do

Feeling good, etc. Everybody repeat after me:

I …. got that beat, (repeat, break, repeat scatting I’s, hey’s, etc)
