English[edit]
You bow to the left, you bow to the right
You take your partner's hand and you hold on tight
You pull him in close and you don't let go
Now you're doin' the Banana Do-si-do!You push him back quick then you pull him in fast
You spin him real hard to make the dizziness last
You grab him by the shoulders and you shake him like so
Now you're doin' the Banana Do-si-do!You grab him by the waist, lift him high in the air
If you throw him high enough, he'll need intensive care
You're doin' a hand-stand, you're walkin' real slow
Now you're doin' the Banana Do-si-do!You promenade as you're dancing through the Everglades
Skip to the beat 'til you can't feel your feet!You grab him by the sides and you bend him in half
You tickle his feet so it makes him laugh
Hold him in your arms, rock him to-and-fro
Now you're doin' the Banana Do-si-do!
Doin' the Banana Do-si-do!
