Swinging Blue Jeans (The) are a four-piece 1960s British Merseybeat band, best known for their hit singles with the HMV label; “Hippy Hippy Shake”, “Good Golly Miss Molly”, and “You’re No Good”, issued in 1964. Subsequent singles released that year and the next made no impression. In 1966, their version of Burt Bacharach and Hal David’s “Don’t Make Me Over” peaked at no. 31 in the UK Singles Chart, but the group never charted again.

Lyrics
I got the hippy hippy shake
I got the shake
I got the hippy hippy shake
There’s one thing I can’t break
The hippy hippy shake
I got the hippy hippy shake
Now I’m getting my thrills
I got the hippy hippy shake
That’s what we can’t fake
The hippy hippy shake
Yaaarrrgh!
You shake it to the right
You do the hippy shake shake
And shake it all night
You shake
There’s one thing I can’t break
The hippy hippy shake
I got the hippy hippy shake
I got the hippy hippy shake
There’s one thing I can’t break
The hippy hippy shake
Yaaarrrgh!
You shake it to the right
you do the hippy shake shake
And shake it all night
You shake
There’s one thing I can’t break
The hippy hippy shake
I got the hippy hippy shake
I can’t stand still
I got the hippy hippy shake
There’s one thing I can’t break
Ow! the hippy hippy shake
Ow! the hippy hippy shake
Ow! the hippy hippy shake
Ow! the hippy hippy shake
