  • Dancin, dancin, dancin!
    She's a dancin' machine
    Oh babe, move it baby
    Mmm bop doo wop

    Automatic, systematic
    Full of color self contained
    Tuned and gentle to your vibes
    Captivating, stimulating
    She's such a sexy lady
    Filled with space-age design

    She's movin', she's groovin'
    Dancin' until the music stops now, yeah

    Rhythmatic, acrobatic
    She's a dynamite attraction
    At the drop of a coin she comes alive, yeah
    She knows what she's doin', she's super bad now
    She's geared to really blow your mind

    Dancin, dancin', dancin'!
    She's a dancin' machine
    Ah, baby
    Do it baby
    Dancin, dancin', dancin'!
    She's a dancin' machine
    Ah, baby
    Move it baby

    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene

    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene

    Come on baby,oh bop shoo bop
    Come on baby,oh bop shoo bop
    Oh baby, bop shoo bop
    Oh baby bop shoo bop
    Shake it baby
    Ooh bop shoo bop (Shake it baby)
    Oh baby, bop shoo bop
    Oh baby bop shoo bop

    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene

    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene

    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene
    She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
    Watch her get down,watch her get down
    As she do,do,do her thing, right on the scene Writer/s: DON FLETCHER, HAL DAVIS, WELDON DEAN PARKS

  • Mark from CaliforniaThe 2 weeks that "Dancing Machine" was at #2 on the Top 100 (reaching this position on 18 May 1974), the #1 record for both those weeks was "The Streak" by Ray Stevens.
  • Lifelong Jackson 5 Fan from New York CityYou should listen closer. The female robot voice at the introduction of the 1973 "Get It Together" album version of "Dancing Machine" says "Thank you master for turning me on"
