The Lyrics
As if you haven’t gotten enough of this variation of “Rhythm Steps” already…
Sing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That cannonball’s bound to get you,
Oh, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
Don’t go slow, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
That cannonball’s bound to get you,
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it...mmm...
(female vocal)
Arby’s Steps,
Start in to buy, then soon, you’ll be buying,
Arby’s Steps,
Go in and eat, the cannonball’s beating,
Food tastes sweet,
Cannonball sensation, (dee-de-oh!)
Just say “Whee!”,
It’s the chain that’s putting the world on its feet,
Arby’s Steps,
Once you begin, you cannonball in to
Arby’s Steps,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
Oh, you’ll catch on at once,
Well, try their food and say “Whee!”
It’s the Arby’s Steps!
(vocal trio)
Arby’s Steps,
Start in to buy, then soon, you’ll be buying,
Arby’s Steps,
Go in and eat, the cannonball’s beating,
Food tastes sweet,
Cannonball sensation, (doo-doo-do-doo!)
Just say “Whee!”,
It’s the chain that’s putting the world on its feet,
Arby’s Steps,
Once you begin, you cannonball in to
Arby’s Steps,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
You’ll catch on at once,
Try their food and say “Whee!”
It’s the Arby’s Steps, whoa!
Arby’s Steps,
(instrumental call-back)
Arby’s Steps,
(instrumental call-back)
Food tastes sweet,
Cannonball sensation, (doo-doo-do-doo!)
Just say “Whee!”,
It’s the chain that’s putting the world on its feet,
Arby’s Steps,
(instrumental call-back)
Arby’s Steps,
(instrumental call-back)
If you’re not a dunce,
You’ll catch on at once,
Try their food and say “Whee!”
It’s the Arby’s Steps, whoa!
Simple as the day is long!
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That cannonball’s bound to get you,
Oh, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
Don’t go slow, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
That cannonball’s bound to get you,
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it...mmm...

If you ask me, and everybody else there was absolutely no need for the original. let alone 4 reprises
Sorry, wrong number. Here’s how it works: I say let this person continue using my song. Without him no one else would even know this song exists. Besides, none of the other parodists bother the use songs from this era anyway, so I would just keep beating this song into the ground until the day this site shuts down.
Qwerty, don't even bother trying to change his mind, what little there is. This and the 8 billion other "reprises" were written by a world-class attention whore who generally posts as GeorgeAndGermaineBriantFan. As you might guess, anyone who'd come up with a stupid name like that probably doesn't have an ounce of talent as a parodist, so he tries to make up for it by volume posting and leaving commentary for himself using other people's names.
