IT AIN'T THE MEAT
Mann / Glover

as rec by The Swallows  1951


It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the motion,
It's the movement that gives it the sock!

Now I had a girl so doggone thin,
No meat, no bones, she was just all skin!
One thing about her I can understand,
She wraps all around me like a rubber band!

It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the motion,
It's the movement that gives it the sock!

It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the motion,
It's the movement that gives it the sock!

You find some girls who are big and fat,
Some fellows don't like to see them like that!
But I like to see 'em big and tall,
The bigger they come, the harder they fall!

It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the motion,
It's the movement that gives it the sock!

It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the movement,
It ain't the meat it's the action
That makes your daddy wanna rock all night!

I got a little girl who lives down the street,
It ain't much of her but she's mighty sweet!
When she starts rockin' she don't wanna stop,
It makes a man a-wanna blow his top1

It ain't the meat, it's the motion
Makes your daddy wanna rock;
It ain't the meat, it's the motion,
It's the movement that gives it the sock!
