They're doing it in the street
Doing it with folks they meet
They're doing it in the hall

They're doing it up on the wall

They're doing it in the air now

They're doing it everywhere

Come on, skate now, children

Come on, skate now, children
Come on, skate now, children
Do the skate now, children


I say the mamas and the papas are doing it
Sisters and brothers are doing it

The kids in the block now, now, now
Are doing it around the clock


Hey, the hippies from the city, y'all
Getting down to the nitty gritty


Come on, skate now, children
I said, skate now, children
Come on, skate now, hey, children

Do the skate now, hey, children

I said oooh...

There ain't nothing, nothing to it
You can do it


If you got soul, yeah
Said if you got soul now
I said you got the beat now

Children, get up, get up
Move your feet now


Come on, baby
I said skate now
Now, now, children

Come on, skate now
Now, now, children
Come on, skate now

Now, now, children
Come on, skate now
Now, now, children


Get to the groove
Get lost, get lost and move

All right, said
Move your feet now
Now, now, baby...
