Lyrics

Shoo fly, don’t bother me (repeat twice)
For I belong to somebody.

I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel like a morning star. (repeat)

Dance / Play-Party Game

Students stand in a circle with partners next to each other. Hold hands.

First 8 measures: Walk forward four steps, swinging arms toward center of the circle, and walk backward four steps, swinging arms down and away from circle. Repeat.

Second 8 measures (“I feel”): Partners face, join hands, and circle in place, changing directions every two measures.

Variation at Part 2: Head couple forms an arch with their arms. A leader leads others through the arch and into position in a new circle for repeat from beginning. (source)
