He rodent into town
Fangs were getting himdown
He whiskered around thejuke joint
Where the coolcats hang around
Down at the mouse trap
Fangs were getting hot
Squealing with delight
Their legs began to hop

They're doin' the rat
Keep your trap shut
Do the rat
Be a cool cat
Do the rat
Well hold on to your hat
'cos that's where it's at
Wrap your tail around your partner
You're doing the rat
