Heat Wave

A heat wave blew into town last week
She came from the island of Martinique
The can, can, she dances will make you fry
The can, can is really the reason why
We’re havin' a heat wave
Tropical heat wave
The temperature’s risin'
It isn’t surprising
She certainly can, can, can
She started a heat wave
By lettin' her feet wave
And in such a way that
The customers say that
She certainly can, can, can
Gee, her anatomy
Makes the mercury
Jump up to ninety-three
Yes sir
We’re havin' a heat wave
Tropical heat wave
The way that she moves that
Thermometer proves that
She certainly can, can, can
It’s so hot, weatherman will tell you
A record’s been made
It’s so hot, a coat of tan
Will cover your face in the shade
It’s so hot, the coldest maiden
Feels just as warm as the bride
It’s so hot, a chicken laid an egg on the street
And it fried
We’re havin' a heat wave
A tropical heat wave
The temperature’s risin'
It isn’t surprisin'
She certainly can, can, can
She started a heat wave
By lettin' her feet wave
And in such a way
That the customers say that
She certainly can, can, can
Gee, her anatomy
Makes that mercury
Jump up to ninety-three
That’s hot man
We’re havin' a heat wave
A tropical heat wave
The way that she moves that
Thermometer proves that
She certainly can, can, can
Yes, she certainly can, can, can
Oh, she certainly can, can, can
