Should you plan to travel way down South
Woman to woman, I gotta tell you 'bout
A curse that rose out of the deep, green swamp
It hollers murder and it makes you jump
And then it saysDo the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeahWhen I was younger, just a little girl
Lennon glasses and a ponytail
My mama told me, "Honey, pack your trunk
We're goin' to Mississippi, do the bayou bump"
Where they sayDo the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
Do the zombie, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahOne day, I set out for a walk
The path soon grew quite dark
I saw my shadow runnin' faster
Hurry, slow-mo comin' after me
After me and it saidDo the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, woah, yeahAnd zombie don't have to dance
And zombie don't dance at your command
But zombie don't have to wait
So come on do the voodoo shakeDo the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeahOne day, I set out for a walk
The path soon grew quite dark
I saw my shadow runnin' faster
Hurry, slow-mo comin' after me
After me and it saidDo the zombie
And do the zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
And do the zombie, woah, woah, yeahSun is shinin' and you're feelin' fine
As you pass the Mason-Dixie line
The forest echoes and the tree leaves snap
Hey, what's that sound, spin around who that?
Then they sayDo the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
Do the zombie, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahDo the zombie, zombie, woah, yeah
Do the zombie
Do the zombie, woah, woah, yeah
Do the zombieDo the zombie
Zombie, zombie, the zombie
Do the zombie
Zombie, zombie
