Love Shack Lyrics

[00:07.68] If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says
[00:11.67] "15 miles to the Love Shack"
[00:17.16] Love Shack, yeah, yeah
[00:21.94] I'm heading down the Atlanta highway
[00:29.16] Looking for the love getaway
[00:31.43]
[00:34.04] Headed for the love getaway
[00:36.70] I got me a car, it's as big as a whale
[00:39.87] And we're headin' on down to the Love Shack
[00:43.97] I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20
[00:47.12] So hurry up and bring your jukebox money
[00:51.09] The love shack is a little old place where
[00:55.46] We can get together
[01:00.31] Love Shack, baby (the Love Shack, baby)
[01:05.83] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
[01:09.32] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
[01:12.88] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (love, baby, that's where it's at)
[01:16.69] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (love, baby, that's where it's at)
[01:20.69] Sign says (woo), "Stay away, fools"
[01:23.60] 'Cause love rules at the Love Shack
[01:26.62] Well, it's set way back in the middle of a field
[01:30.23] Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back
[01:34.68] Glitter on the mattress
[01:38.05] Glitter on the highway
[01:41.65] Glitter on the front porch
[01:45.40] Glitter on the highway
[01:48.49] The Love Shack is a little old place where
[01:52.82] We can get together
[01:57.78] Love Shack, baby (Love Shack, baby)
[02:03.25] Love Shack, that's where it's at
[02:06.63] Love Shack, that's where it's at
[02:10.51] Hugging and a-kissing
[02:12.22] Dancing and a-loving
[02:13.89] Wearing next to nothing 'cause it's hot as an oven
[02:17.68] The whole shack shimmies
[02:20.66] Yeah, the whole shack shimmies
[02:24.64] The whole shack shimmies when everybody's moving around
[02:28.71] And around and around and around
[02:31.96] Everybody's moving, everybody's grooving, baby
[02:35.51] Folks linin' up outside just to get down
[02:39.09] Everybody's moving, everybody's grooving, baby
[02:42.87] Funky little shack
[02:44.49] Funky little shack!
[02:47.34]
[03:00.94] Hop in my Chrysler
[03:02.38] It's as big as a whale and it's about to set sail
[03:08.02] I got me a car, it seats about 20
[03:11.16] So come on and bring your jukebox money
[03:14.97] The Love Shack is a little old place where
[03:19.42] We can get together
[03:24.15] Love Shack, baby (the Love Shack, baby)
[03:29.36] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
[03:33.13] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
[03:36.69] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (love, baby, that's where it's at, yeah)
[03:40.15] Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (love, baby, that's where it's at)
[03:44.74]
[03:58.10] Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
[04:03.43] Knock a little louder, baby
[04:05.34] Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
