Porter Wagoner Lyrics
"Wakin' Up The Crowd"

(Red Hayes - Johnny Rector)

Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's havin' fun we're wakin' up the crowd
Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's dancin' now we're wakin' up the crowd.

Now all you boys that sittin' round don't pass up this chance
Wrap the gal that's next to you get on the floor and dance
Now's the time to show her off and make her feel so proud
'Cause everybody's dancin' now we're wakin' up the crowd.

Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's havin' fun we're wakin' up the crowd
Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's dancin' now we're wakin' up the crowd.

--- Instrumental ---

A while ago when I came in was a sight to see
Oh everybody looked so sad I thought oh mercy me
When the band stuck up a tune to get it good and loud
Cause everybody's dancin' now we're wakin' up the crowd

Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's havin' fun we're wakin' up the crowd
Wakin' up the crowd, wakin' up the crowd
Everybody's dancin' now we're wakin' up the crowd...
