| US Version | UK Version |
- All through the town of Wordville
- Folks are in a daze
- There's no doubt they're wild about
- The latest dancing craze
- First you put your foot out
- Heel and toe
- And slide your legs together
- And around you go
- Curl up your whiskers
- Wiggle your knees
- Clap your hands and flap your ears
- And sing out "Cheese"
- Put your right foot forward
- Steppin' out
- Do it on the left
- And twirl about
- Then grab your tail and bounce around
- And never stop
- 'Cause we're doin' the Hippity Mouse Hop
- Doin' the Hippity Mouse Hop
- Partout dans la ville des mots
- C'est l'effervescence
- Tous les copains sont vraiment fous
- De la dernière danse
- Mets ton pied bien en place
- Talons et pointes
- Hisse les jambes ensemble
- Et c'est parti
- Enroule tes moustaches
- Plie les genoux
- Frappe des mains, ouvre les oreilles
- Chante et souris
- Le pied droit en avant
- Allonge le bas
- Le pied gauche maintenant
- Puis un p'tit tour, hop-là !
- Attrape ta queue et tourne autour
- Jamais ne t'arrête
- C'est la pirouette de la souris qui sourit
- La pirouette de la souris qui sourit
- Por toda villa feliz
- La gente habla
- Un baile que es locura
- ¡Uy, que sabrosura!
- Un pie al frente, talón y dedo
- Punta las piernas y salta ruedo
- Dobla los bigotes y las rodillas
- Que bailen orejas, manos, y mejillas
- Saca el pie derecho con lo al frente
- Saca el izquierdo muy ágilmente
- Coge la cola, vamos sin parar
- A bailar este dorado salto
- A bailar este dorado salto
