Dancing Pajamas

February always seems to be my month to do lots of pajama concerts, so I thought it would be fun to share this song with you. It’s just a fun get-up-and-dance song! And of course, it especially fun to do in pajamas! Before you do it with the children, have them practice the movements in the highlighted lyrics below so they'll be ready to join in! Click here for tips on having your own pajama party. It makes a great family night, or fundraiser event too!

Dancing Pajamas

I woke up in the middle of the night, there was a ruckus going on
I jumped out of bed, put on my slippers and I tiptoed down the hall
There was flannel flying, fuzzy slippers too, I didn’t know quite what to do
‘Till I heard a voice say, “Hey you– come on and join the fun!”

Chorus:
Put on your dancin’ pajamas, jump up and wiggle around
Put on your dancin’ pajamas, we’re gonna boogie down
When the music is rockin’ you can roll,
It doesn’t matter if you’re young or old
When you got those dancin’ pajamas, you can jump up and wiggle around

Come on and knock your knees together, swing your hips with me
Come on and shake those little tail feathers, join the jamboree
When the music is rockin’ you can roll
It doesn’t matter if you’re young or old
When you got those dancin’ pajamas,
You can jump up and wiggle around*

*Last time substitute with:
Jump up and wiggle, jump up and giggle, jump up and jiggle around
Uh huh, oo-oo, oh yeah!
