Mashed Potato, ya, ya, ye-e-eah

A Mashed Potato started long time ago

With a guy named Sloppy Joe

You'll find this dance is so cool to do

Come on baby, gonna teach it to you

Mashed Potato, feel it in your feet now

Mashed Potato, come on get the beat now

Baby, come on honey, come on baby

And then they dance it through and through

They look for records they can do it to

They got a dance was outta sight

Doin' the lion sleeps tonight

Mashed Potato, ya a weem o wep a weem o wep

Mashed Potato, ya, ya, ya, ya

It's the latest, aw baby

It's the greatest, come on honey

Ya, ya, ya, ya

Now everybody is doin' fine

They dance alone or in a big boss line

And they discovered it's the most, man

The day they did it to please Mr. Postman

Mashed Potato, wait a minute, wait a minute

Mashed Potato, deliver de letter

It's the latest, come on baby

It's the greatest, oh honey

Ya, ya, ya, ya

Well they got with more and more

Ya ought to see 'em around the floor
