   D           
First you put your two knees close up tight 
G7  
Then you sway 'em to the left and then you sway 'em to the right 
C7  
Step around the floor kind anice and light  
         F              A               D         A7  
Then you twist around twist around with all of your might 
D7                              
Put your loving arms straight out in space 
G7  
Do the easy rock with style and grace 
            Db7                F Dm D7   
Swing your foot way around and bring it back 
Gm7                   C7           F  
Now that's what I call ballin' the jack
