Lyrics
Canvas bag across my shoulder Sunny street and I feel bolder Oranges stacked in a golden pile Vendor waves and he gives a smile Bread is warm and the bag is swinging Every step has a beat that's ringing Do the market bag boogie, swing it side to side Baskets full of sunshine, take it for a ride Hey, hey, what you got in your bag? Hey, hey, shake it, shake it, don't drag Market bag boogie, one two three Good morning rhythm, come dance with me Leafy greens and a bunch of mint Smell of ginger, a sweet hint Coins in my pocket go clink clink clink Tapping my toes faster than you think Bread is warm and the bag is swinging Every step has a beat that's ringing Do the market bag boogie, swing it side to side Baskets full of sunshine, take it for a ride Hey, hey, what you got in your bag? Hey, hey, shake it, shake it, don't drag Market bag boogie, one two three Good morning rhythm, come dance with me Left shoulder, right shoulder Bag gets a little bit heavier Don't you mind, I'm feeling lighter Sun on my face and the day is brighter Do the market bag boogie, swing it side to side Baskets full of sunshine, take it for a ride Hey, hey, what you got in your bag? Hey, hey, shake it, shake it, don't drag Market bag boogie, one two three Good morning rhythm, come dance with me Swing it, swing it, bag in hand Best little dance in the whole wide land Market bag boogie, one more time Everything's sweet and the day is mine
