Shake A Feather
(words and music by Rick Springfield) 

You wanna shake your feather with me
Do it all together with me
If you don't want to get em caught in a fire
Keep on movin, get em behind
Shake a feather, uh huh
Shake your feathers

Rockin and a Rollin all night
Feeling like my head's getting tight
If you should feel the way, I'll take you up higher
Gently say, step into my fire
Shake a feather, uh huh
Shake your feathers

Got to together
Never mind the weather
Got to shake a feather
Before you shake your head
Shake a feather

Got to together
Never mind the weather
Got to shake a feather
Before you shake your head

Come on and a shake a feather on me
Do it all together with me
If you don't wanna get em caught in a fire
Keep on movin, get em behind
Shake a feather
Shake your feathers, oh yea
Shake your feathers

Shake your feathers, oh yea
Shake your feathers, oh yea
Shake your feathers (repeat)

Wow... from Pinky to Feather.... rocking glory to a light funny song!

This is certainly a silly song - sorry just a few too many feather references for me. It starts out cute with a clear analogy to the 'feather' but then it just over does it. But it seems to fit the time period perfect. The beat is just very reminiscent -- and certainly many of the lyrics of that time period were not brilliant works of art either - just catchy little 'dittys'. I also like the guitar in this song so it's fun.... but by the end I just wanna pluck that bird! - Jen H.


OHHH that's a cute little song!!! Country-ish sorta, but cute! Even if it is about shaking feathers! LOL Now that is not "our baby" singing on lead I know....that sounds like Beeb, but it seems I can hear Rick in the background. What a hoot. This must have been around the time he was wearing that loin cloth & feather outfit?!?? Thanks a bunch. Ok....will get a review together. I still lack that song "Feelings" too. Oooops I almost forgot it! - Kelley Pearson
