      I haven't done a cartwheel since I was nine
      I haven't seen my mother in a long, long time
      I mean, look at me, look at the length of my hair
      My face, the shape of my body
      Do you really think I give a damn what I do
      After years of just hearing them talking?
      I say I live in Rosemead
      Really, I'm at the Ramada
      It doesn't really matter
      Doesn't really, really matter
      Call him up, come into my bedroom
      Ended up, we fuck on the hotel floor
      It's not about havin' someone to love me anymore
      This is the experience of bein' an American whore
      Called up one drunk, called up another
      Forensic Files wasn't on
      Watching Teenage Diary of a Girl
      Wondering what went wrong
      I'm a princess, I'm divisive
      Ask me why, why, why I'm like this
      Maybe I'm just kinda like this
      I don't know, maybe I'm just like this
      I say I live in Rosemead
      Really, I'm at the Ramada
      It doesn't really matter
      Doesn't really, really matter
      Call him up, he comes over again
      Yeah, I know I'm over my head, but, oh
      It's not about havin' someone to love me anymore
      No, this is the experience of bein' an American whore
      I mean, look at my hair
      Look at the length of it and the shape of my body
      If I told you that I was raped
      Do you really think that anybody would think I didn't ask for it?
      I didn't ask for it
      I won't testify, I already fucked up my story
      On top of this, so many other things you can't believe
      Did you know a singer can still be
      Lookin' like a side piece at thirty-three?
      God's a charlatan, don't look back, babe
      Puts the shower on while he calls me
      Slips out the back door to talk to me
      I'm invisible, look how you hold me
      I'm invisible, I'm invisible
      I'm a ghost now, look how you hold me now
      It's not about havin' someone to love me anymore (oh, okay)
      No, this is the experience of bein' an American whore
      It's not about havin' someone to love me anymore
      No, this is the experience of bein' an American whore
      This is the experience of bein' an American whore
      This is the experience of bein' an American whore

    LOL i remember singing this song as a little boy back in 1962 then when this was played over the AM radio station inside my dad's 1955 chevy and at home on the 45rpm record player. Wow, decades later to today, when first seeing this video and hearing it now, this song eerily brings back the little boy in me and some memories of the country that I used to live in Northern California, Terminus/Lodi area.

    I guess I am the only old timer here because I loved Little Anthony and the Imperials. And I used to run home after school to watch the Dick Clark (American Bandstand ) Show. I don't who or what Exo or Sehun is. I suppose it's nice that everything old is new again. :)

    Song had me hooked. Trying to figure out what the title meant. That melodic rhythm section. That hooking bass line. Those great backing harmonies and that whoooooo ending. Not to mention that voice of Frankie. Music that's gone but never forgotten.

    Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh - ah
    Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh - ah
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop (ahh)
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop (ahh)
    Sittin' in a native hut
    All alone and blue
    Sittin' in a native hut
    Wonderin' what to do
    Along came a native girl
    Did a native dance
    It was like in paradise
    Put me in a trance
    Goin' shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Joined her in her dancin' spree
    Felt my spine a-tingle
    Held her tight and close to me
    Man, I'm glad I'm single
    Then she showed me what to do
    First I was amazed
    Soon I learned a step or two
    Put me in a daze
    Goin' shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    You can do the ko-ko bop
    Now's no time to stop
    Left foot forward
    Right one back
    Bring them side by side
    Syncopate your last two steps
    Now you're gonna glide
    Keep along the rhythm track
    Girls please show 'em how
    Now you start to arch your back
    Man, you got it now
    Goin' shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop, oh
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy bop
    Shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop
    Shimmy shimmy ahhhhhh
