We are doing "Inventions" for our theme, one of our catagories is "mean of transportation". I have 5 adult tap classes from beginner to advance levels. Listed are possible song ideas, however we are up for other suggestion , not totally set on what we have as yet!
Cars- Grease Lightning
Boats- Lifeboat Party (would like something else, fast)
Trains-Come on Ride the Train
Plane- Jet Airliner (would consider something else)
Motorcycle- Born to be Wild (open for idea for this one)

Ensemle to dance together- "Ease on down the road?)or something else.
These are adult ages 30 thru 50ish ....total about 35 or so dancer. Really would appreciate any suggestion or additional mean of transportation. Can't us "Bus" - using Get on the Bus for a childrens number. Thought about a Trolley but the only song I know is The Trolley Song by Judy Garland....too old & won't work with the newer songs we are considering. Thanks for your time!

Space Cowboy- Steve Miller Band
Cosy in the Rocket- Psapp
Rocket- The Hit Crew

If there are children in the show/audience, please remember to edit "Greased Lightning".

Its something we don't always think about because we all have watched the movie forever, but there are lines like: "You know that ain't no sh*t, we'll be getting lots of t*t" and "A real p*ssy wagon"...

I didn't even realize it until the 2nd or 3rd time I used the song for something...

I think all of these suggestions are great, though! Another good car one would be Pink Cadillac.

also I head a diff live version of do the locomotion but I don't know if its the original singer I saw it on youtube its slowed down, a little more sexy and not as kiddy as the original. I would search do the locomotion jazz dance or something similar
