Lyrics

There's a jumpin' little place I go Called The Action It's just about a mile or so Down the street And there's a party goin' on in there Down a lot of funky stairs And everything will be rare 'Till the break of dawn No, you don't want to walk on down To The Action 'Cause once you get in there You're gonna wanna use your feet And when the music starts a gettin' hot They're gonna burn up everything you got But you ain't gonna wanna stop 'Till the break of dawn They're doin' the pony Watch 'em do the jerk Then they get down on the floor And they go to work Sister's doin' the alligator Up on the table top Lot of Farfisa racket Don't never stop We're goin' to Santa Ana Way down in Eagle Rock Way out in Montebello And down in Huntington Park Out in El Sereno Better show 'em what you got Out on Whittier Boulevard The action never stops Down at The Action Meet you down at The Action Down at The Action Baby gettin' into some action Satisfaction, yeah Meet you down at The Action Don't wanna end up in traction Meet you down at The Action
