Crack that whip
Give the past a slip
Step on a crack
Break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sets out too long
You must whip it,
When something's goin' wrong,
You must whip it,
Now whip it,
Into shape,
Shape it up
Get straight,
Go forward
Move ahead,
Try to detect it
It's not too late,
To whip it,
Whip it good,
When a good time turns around,
You must whip it,
You will never live it down,
Unless you whip it,
No one gets away,
Until they whip it,
I say whip it,
Whip it good,
I say whip it,
Whip it good,
Crack that whip,
Give the past a slip,
Step on a crack,
Break your momma's back,
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sets out too long,
You must whip it,
When something's goin' wrong,
You must whip it,
Now whip it,
Into shape,
Shape it up,
Get straight,
Go forward,
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Into shape
Shape it up,
Get straight,
Go forward,
Move ahead,
Try to detect it
It's not too late,
To whip it
Well, whip it good
