Lyrics: Kung Fu Fighting

Carl Douglas

Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting,
those cats were fast as lightning.
In fact, it was a little bit frightening,
but they fought with expert timing.

There were funky China men
from funky Chinatown.
They were chopping them up,
they were chopping them down.
It's an ancient Chinese art,
and everybody knew their part.
From a fainting to a slip,
and a kickin' from the hip.

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting,
those cats were fast as lightning.
In fact, it was a little bit frightening,
but they fought with expert timing.

There was funky Billy Chin,
and little Sammy Chong.
He said, "Here comes the big boss,
let's get it on."
We took the bow and made a stand,
started swaying with the hand.
The sudden motion made me skip,
now we're into a brand new trip.

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting,
huh!
Those cats were fast as lightning,
ha!
In fact, it was a little bit frightening,
huh!
But they did it with expert timing,
ha!
Oh, yeah!

Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
huh!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
huh!
Oh -hoh -hoh hoah,
keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on,
ha!
Sure enough,

everybody was Kung Fu fighting,
huh!
Those cats were fast as lightning,
ha!
In fact, it was a little bit frightening,
huh!
Make sure you have expert timing,

ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.
Kung Fu fighting.
Those cats were fast as lightning.

Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah,
ha!
Oh -hoh -hoh -hoah.
ha!
