You shake it to the left, you shake it to the right
You shake it down the middle too
Your feet doin’ one thing your hands do another
That syncopated rhythm you do
All eyes upon you
Fascination on the face of the crowd
The dance would overcome you
Your head somewhere high in the clouds
Oh Oh Eliza, whatever happened to you
Oh oh oh Eliza, I wonder what became of you
Head up head down hands down to the ground
Swing out with your leg and sway
Oh oh oh Eliza, those really were the days
Young at heart nothing much to think of
Salad days through and through
Then comes work and somewhere to live
And maybe a family too
The next thing you know, your bones are getting old
The cares start to weigh you down
There's no escaping the ties you're making
Tend to make you wear a frown
Oh Oh Eliza, whatever happened to you
Oh oh oh Eliza, I wonder what became of you
Head up head down hands down to the ground
Swing out with your leg and sway
Oh oh oh Eliza, those really were the days
