Sweet little thing that comes out in the east
I'll tell ya this thing is really good and sweet
down to Chicago down to New Orleans
doing anything and I swear its mighty clean
Shake it off, Shake it off, in LA, what'd I say?

I met this lil' girl, she comes up from the south
and let me tell you all she had a hell of a singing mouth
went to New York put her on Broadway
you should of heard those singing girls say
Shake it off, Take it off, in L.A.
Shake it off, Take it off, in L.A.

Took her to Hollywood, put her on TV
they way she danced she set my soul free
I wanna tell y'all this is no damn lie
the way that women dance set my soul on fire
Shake it off, Shake it off, in L.A.
Detroit City...
Shake it off
