Lyrics
  • You put your arms in
  • You put your arms out
  • You put your arms in
  • And splash them all about
  • You do the hokey tokey
  • And you turn around
  • That’s what it's all about
  • You put your head in
  • You put your head out
  • You put your head in
  • And move it all about
  • You do the hokey tokey
  • And you turn around
  • You put yourself in
  • You do the hokey tokey
  • And you turn around - that's what it's all about
  • You put yourself in
  • You shake yourself about
  • You put yourself out
  • Thats what it's all about
