Hitchhike, hitchhike

(Popeye)
Standin' on the side of the street, uh huh
Hitchhike, hitchhike

(Popeye)
Clappin' 1 his hand to the beat, oh yeah
Hitchhike, hitchhike

Hey Popeye
Tryin' 2 to bum a ride
(Popeye)
Tryin' but none come around
They go by, hey Popeye

Well now clap your 3
And thumb your thumbs
That's how the Popeye dance is done

(Popeye)
Standin' there and it's gettin' 4 , oh yeah
Hitchhike, hitchhike

(Popeye)
Shakin' now to warm up his soul, uh huh
Hitchhike, 5

Hey Popeye
Double timing with that thumb
(Popeye)
Tryin' but nobody 6
They go by, hey Popeye

Well now clap your hands
And thumb your thumbs
That's how the 7 dance is done

Standin' there and it's gettin' late, oh yeah
Hitchhike, hitchhike

(Popeye)
Dancin' 8 and he's movin' great, oh yeah
Hitchhike, hitchhike

Hey Popeye
Sees a gorgeous 9 drive by

Well now clap your hands
And thumb your thumbs
That's how the Popeye dance is done
