Foot Note – If you wish not to use your hands, bump your hips left-right on counts 3-4 of SEC 5. On these counts of the chorus walls (2,4,6), he sings “I got a diamond in my pocket” – the slaps happen when he says pocket. Slap your hands on the pockets either at the front or back of your trousers. If you have no pockets on your trousers, you can tap your shirt pocket twice instead – or wherever you have a pocket. If you have no pockets, you could pretend to search your person as if you’ve lost the ring. Just have fun!
