Sing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That event 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 event is bound to get you,
Event, event, event, event, event...mmm...

Start in to sing, then soon, you’ll be swinging,

It’s a new sensation, (dee-de-oh!)
You’ll agree,
It’s the step that’s putting the world on its feet,
H.S.J.®,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
H.S.J.®,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
Oh, you’ll catch on at once,
Well, simple as ABC,
It’s the H.S.J.®!
