[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
We had to have something to do, a dance to do up here in Harlem
So, someone started truckin'
As soon as the news got 'round, the folks downtown came up to Harlem
Saw everybody truckin'
[Bridge]
It didn't take long
Before the high-hats were doing it, Park Avenue-ing it all over town
You'd see them scufflin', shufflin', truckin' along
[Verse 2]
It spread like a forest blaze, became a craze
And thanks to Harlem now, everybody's truckin'
[Instrumental]
