The Lyrics
The featured singer on the original “Rhythm Steps” recording.
Sing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That singer is 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 singer is bound to get you,
Singer, singer, singer, singer, singer...mmm...
(female vocal)
Shirley Lloyd,
Start in to sing, then soon, you’ll be swinging,
Shirley Lloyd,
Turn on the heat, your feet will keep beating,
One, two, three,
She’s a new sensation, (dee-de-oh!)
You’ll agree,
She’s the singer putting the world on its feet,
Shirley Lloyd,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
Shirley Lloyd,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
Oh, you’ll catch on at once,
Well, Herbie Kay made her seen,
She was Shirley Lloyd!
(vocal trio)
Shirley Lloyd,
Start in to sing, then soon, you’ll be swinging,
Shirley Lloyd,
Turn on the heat, your feet will keep beating,
One, two, three,
She’s a new sensation, (doo-doo-do-doo!)
You’ll agree,
She’s the singer putting the world on its feet,
Shirley Lloyd,
Once you begin, you have to give in to

Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
You’ll catch on at once,
Herbie Kay made her seen,
She was Shirley Lloyd, whoa!
