I said I'll be your friend, I go wherever
you go
(Let's Go)
I heard the sound of drums
Didn't know they where from
Wherever I was it started to buzz
And now I'm having fun
Everybody walk the dinosaur

That night we split a rattlesnake
and danced beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake
and watched the passing cars
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur

Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
