Lyrics:

I am shaking my maracas,
I am shaking my maracas,
I am shaking my maracas,
then I stop

I am shaking my maracas,
I am shaking my maracas,
I am shaking my maracas,
then I stop

v. 2 I am tapping them together
v. 3 I am tapping on the ground
V. 4 I am shaking them up high
V.5 I am shaking them down low
