Hodja please show me how to spin now Hodja please show me how you do it All the other boys are laughing at me again now Hodja please show me how you do it Whenever I talk they don't hear a thing And everyone laughs when I sing Hodja, please show me how to spin I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am So get up out of your bed one more time Hodja, make me spin Yeah, teach me to spin like I seen you do Why don't you make me the envy of the kids in school I know what to wear, I know how to sound I know about kissing the ground From every alley in Konya Mevlana sings "Turn around, turn around You've got to spin 'til your feet leave the ground" Hodja, someday soon you will be moving on So won't you let me be the one you lay the secret on And it's a 2 4 6 8, take it from the top You've got to start me up and don't let me stop
