[Verse]
Cm                       Bb           Cm
I can hear them dancing, in the marketplace
Cm                       G7
Swishin' and a-swirlin', in their' silks and lace
Fm                         Cm
Bracelets keep a-clinking, on their' tiny feet
    G7                                  | Cm C7 |
And with their tambourines they keep the beat


[Bridge]
F7
 Rings on their fingers, bells on their toes
C7
 They make music, wherever they go
F7
Pound that little drum now, tap on it with your thumb


[Chorus]

I heard their talent, open palace doors
Cm                           G7
Every night they're dancin', on those marble floors
Fm                         Cm
Kings may bow before them, but they'll be my own
G7                                    | Cm C7 |
Then they'll shake their thing for me alone


[Bridge]
F7
 Rings on their fingers, bells on their toes

 They make music, wherever they go
F7
Pound that little drum now, tap on it with your thumb
