Thataway! Lyrics

Thataway! Text

---

[Spoken] Kiss me while you can, boys, I’m gonna round up that Rob Hood and hogtie his fancy Miss Nancy

He made a getaway
He left me flataway
At times like this a modern miss should gallop thataway.
When love goes thisaway
Don’t blow your blissaway
You might find out he’s just about a hug and kissaway.
No matter whichaway
He takes that b**chaway
I won’t consent till he’ll relent to make a switchaway.
If he’s in Santa Fe
Or in Piscataway
I’ll pack my gown and leave this town and gallop thataway!
If he’s in Paraguay
Or even Mandalay
I’ll grab my horse and set my course to reach him thataway!

I’ve known a man or two
A score or more, it’s true
And if he stays or if he strays depends on my lasso
It ain’t just how you woo ‘em
But how your proceed to pursue ‘em

If you move thisaway [Thisaway?]
And shake it thataway [Thataway?]
There’s every chance he’ll see you dance and holler “attaway!” [Attaway!]
Then if you flipaway [Flipaway]
Rotate your hipaway [Ooooh!]
Just wait and see; I guarantee your man won’t slipaway!
[If you’re the mate for him,
Don’t sit and wait for him!]
It’s up to you but if you do you’ll be too late for him.
If there’s a spataway,
Don’t throw his hataway!
[Forget that fight, and hold him tight] till he gets thataway!

Men:

What’s that music?
What’s that dance?
What’s that stirring in my pants?
Did you see that?
Holy cow!
What the hell do I do now?

Women: Men:

If you move thisaway What’s that
And shake it thataway music
There’s every chance he’ll see you dance What’s that
And holler “Attaway!”
Then if you flipaway What’s that
Rotate your hipaway stirring
Just wait and see, I guarantee your guy won’t slipaway In my pants?
If you’re the mate for him, Did you
Don’t sit and wait for him see that?
It’s up to you, but if you do, you’ll be too late for him Holy cow!
If there’s a spataway What the
Don’t throw his hataway! hell do
Forget that fight, and hold him tight till he gets thataway! I do now?

Your man runs thataway [thataway]
Or he choose thatway [thatway]
At times like this [at times like his] a modern miss should gallop
Thatway [Thisaway?] Thataway! [Thisaway!] Thataway! [Thisaway!]
When love goes thisaway [Thisaway]
Don’t blow your blissaway [Thisaway]
You might find out [might find out] he’s just about a hug [hug] and kissaway [kissaway]

And while you chataway,
Your eyes will bataway!

[Eat off the ground] Eat off the ground
[Your heart will pound] Your heart will pound

Everyone:

Eat off the ground
Your heart will pound
As he looks thataway!

Everyone:

Don’t chew the fataway! Don’t chew the fat away.
We have but that to say!
Just from the waist
Love sets a pace
Cut to the chase
Let’s all go thataway!
Or maybe thataway!
I’m heading thataway! Thataway!
