Misheard Lyrics: Everybody was Kung Fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning. Original Lyrics: Everybody was Kung Fu fighting

Songs That Open With Their Titles:
"Kung Fu Fighting"
Opening Lines: Oooo - Oooo - Oooo, Oooo - Oooo - Oooo, Oooo - Oooo - Oooo, everybody was Kung Fu Fighting.
Comments: The #1 hit from December 1974, "Kung Fu Fighting" started a huge mini-craze, that would be seen during much of 1975, of taking martial arts moves onto the Disco dance floor. And it was started by Jamiacan born Carl Douglas (born 1942) and his song "Kung Fu Fighting". Carl Douglas currently lives in Germany and runs a publishing company.
