The song was a cover of Little Eva’s American number one dancefloor sensation written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin and featured on the soundtrack for Arthur 2: On The Rocks starring Liza Minelli and Dudley Moore. Taken from “Kylie” her 7 x UK platinum debut album.

Lyrics:

Everybody′s doing a brand-new dance now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
My little baby sister can do it with me
It′s easier than learning your ABCs

So come on, come on
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, baby, jump up, ooh, jump back
Oh well, I think you got the knack, oh-oh-oh-oh

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
Chug-a, chug-a motion like a railway train now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
Do it nice and easy now, don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul

So come on, come on
Do the loco-motion with me
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on

Move around the floor in a loco-motion
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion) yeah
Do it holding hands if you got the notion
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
There′s never been a dance that′s so easy to do
It even makes you happy when you're feeling blue

So come on, come on
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, baby, jump up, ooh, jump back
Oh well, I think you got the knack, oh-oh-oh-oh

Do the lo-, do the lo-, do the lo-, the loco-motion
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
Do the lo-, do the lo-, do the lo-, the loco-motion
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
Do it nice and easy now, don′t lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul

So come on, come on
Do the loco-motion
Come on, come on
Do the loco-motion
Come on, come on
(Do) you got to loco-motion with me

The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on
The loco-motion (whoa-ooh)
Come on, come on, come on
