My baby works in a hot dog stand
Makin' them hot dogs as fast as she can
Up steps a cat, now don't be slow
Get me two hot dogs ready to go

Chorus:
Hot dog, she's my baby, hot dog, drives me crazy
Hot dog, don't mean maybe
You ought to see my baby in a hot dog stand

In the cool of the evening when the sun goes down
All the cats and the chicks all gather round
They order hot dogs and red soda pop
Then they head downtown to a hep cat hop

Repeat chorus

I'm waiting for my baby every night at twelve
She closes up the top and then we lose ourselves
At a hep cat hop any crazy way
We're doin' the bop till the break of day

Repeat chorus

Now the cats here and how been hangin' around
Trying to get my baby, trying to put me down
She either don't hear, she either don't care
Maybe it's the way that I brush my hair
Repeat chorus
