Is this the song you had in mind? This is my transcription from a recording I heard on Spotify:


THAT NASTY SWING
As sung by Cliff Carlisle on several albums

1. Sweet little mama, come along; why don't you swing that thing?
Lawdy, Lawdy, oh my Lawd, do that nasty swing.
I know you can, 'cause I'm a nasty man.

2. Did you mean it when you told me you had the nasty swing?
Somethin' tells me, sweet little gal, you've got ev'rything.
Wind my motor, honey; I've got a double spring.
Place a needle in that hole and do that nasty swing.

[Yodel]

3. My gal drives a Packard car; she bought me a diamond ring.
She showed me how to do that thing they call the nasty swing.
She's my pal, my little nasty gal.

[Repeat 2.]
