Wham! I feel like an uke

by Beate Kawelke

sung to the tune of "Man! I feel like a woman" by Shania Twain

I'm going out tonight - I'm feeling allright
Gonna let it all hang out
Wanna make some noise - really raise my voice
Yeah, I wanna scream and shout

No inhibitions - make no conditions
You'd better step out of line
Here's my attack - committed, don't hold back
We're gonna have a real good time

BRIDGE
The best thing about being an uke
Is the prerogative to have a little fun and...

CHORUS
Oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy - forget I'm a lady
White shirts - black skirts
Oh, oh, oh, really go wild - yeah, doin' it in style
Oh, oh, oh, get in the action - see me attackin'
Breakfall or not - rolling, get up
Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free - yeah, to feel the way I feel
Wham! I feel like an uke!
Us babes need a break - tonight we're gonna take
The chance to get out on the town
We don't need romance - we only wanna dance
We're only stopping when you bow

BRIDGE

CHORUS

I get totally crazy
Can you feel it
Come, come, come now baby

I feel like an uke!
