Hurry mister furrier,
You better set some traps
Hurry mister furrier,
And I don't mean perhaps
The charleston's coming back again
Although they once embalmed it
So synchronize your racoonsmen
And dance like dad and mom did
Hey now, say now,
Hear the music play now
It's a brand-new tune
For doin' the new racoon
Charleston, rythm
Makes you go right with 'em
Morning, night and noon
We're doin' the new racoon

You slide and you topple
You topple and slide
You glide and you wobble
From side to side
It appeals to small folks, tall folks
It's the rage for all folks
Won't you join us soon
Start doin' the new racoon

You slide and you topple
You topple and slide
You glide and you wobble
From side to side
It appeals to small folks, tall folks
It's the rage for all folks
Won't you join us soon
Start doin' the new racoon
