The Mashed Potato started long time ago
With a guy named Sloppy Joe
You’ll find this dance is a cool to do
C’mon baby, gonna teach it to you
Mashed potatoes, hear that groovy beat, now
Mashed potatoes, c’mon twist your feet, now
Baby it’s the latest

And then this dance just a grew and grew
They looked for records they could do it to
They found this dance is a out of sight
To “When the Lion Sleeps Tonight”

They dance along, form a big boss line
And they discovered it’s the most, man
