Name: The Crab Walk
Duration: P00H02M21S
Description: Come on crustaceans! It's time to get down in the sand and shuffle around. The Crab Walk is one of the first children's song I ever wrote, but for some reason it never landed on any of the Flannery Brothers' records. I'm so excited to finally have it on an album. This version really came alive with Mike's funky bass line.

lyrics

Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk

Get down in the sand
Shuffle your feet
Move side to side
Dance to the beat

Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk

I like dancing
On a sandy beach
Listen closely
And I will teach

The crab walk to you
You can learn the steps
Move side to side
And you'll never forget!

To get down in the sand
Shuffle your feet
Move side to side
Dance to the beat

Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk
Do the crab walk

In my shell
I feel so safe
When I start dancing
It's a funky funky place

I've got six legs
I've got two claws
I've got two paddles
That help me move along

I want to dance!
