Retro Song of the day - Love Shack by the B52's!

Who doesn't love this song! This is a classic that has been on my list to put up as a retro song of the day (it's actually turned into the retro song of the - whenever the hell Jim gets around to changing it song) since i started doing this. My friend Cheryl suggested it in a recent email - so here goes to Cheryl! Turn up your sound, click on the retro song of the day and sing along - get up and dance if you really want to have fun! God - this was a great dance song!

Love Shack

If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says
15 miles to the... Love Shack! Love Shack yeah
I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway, lookin' for the love getaway
Heading for the love getaway, love getaway, love getaway, 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, Love Shack bay-bee.
Love shack, baby, love shack Love shack, baby, love shack
Love baby, that's where it's at, Ooo love baby, that's where it's at

Sign says.. Woo... 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 hallway

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 no thing Cause it's hot as an oven
The whole shack shimmies when everybody' s Movin' around and around and around!
Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin' baby! Folks linin' up outside
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 20 So come on and bring your jukebox money .

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack baby, Love Shack bay-bee.
Love shack, baby, love shack
Love shack, baby, love shack
Ooo love baby, that's where it's at

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 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 Shack, baby Love Shack!
Love baby, that's where it's at (ad lib)

I hope you had as much fun with this song as I did! Remember to send me suggestions for other great retro songs and I'll add it to the play list and add the lyrics!
