Lyrics
- All you boys with high blood pressure
All you girls with too much flesh
Your day has come at last
Here’s a dance you poor wall flowers
Once you try, you’ll dance for hours
I’ll explain it fast
Hot stuff is taboo, follow me, and do
Chorus
The “Free and Easy”
Smear the floor with wax, let yourself relax
Loosen up your backs free and easy
Start out breezy
Let your elbows sag, let your tootsies drag
Like you had a jag free and easy
Slave men, brave men
“One foot in the grave” men
Grab yourself a partner now
Show girls, slow girls
“Never had a beau” girls
Here’s your only chance, and how
If you pleasy while the music plays
You can dance for days to the lazy craze
Free and Easy
- Goodbye, Charleston, and Black Bottom
Free and Easy dance has got ’em
Licked a hundred ways
Has all that could be desired
Still you dance, and don’t get tired
Bound to be the craze
Needs no youth and pep
Just get up and step
