What does “She’s About A Mover” mean?

There is a song, from 1965, by Sir Douglas Quintet called “She’s About a Mover”. I’ve always wondered what that phrase meant. The garage rock song has a Tex-Mex sound with a 12-bar blues structure. The single is on Tribe Records, number 8308, and runs 2 minutes and 20 seconds long. But what were they trying to say?

The song was written by Doug Sahm (lead vocals and guitar) with a Vox Continental organ riff provided by Augie Meyers. It was named the number one Texas song by “Texas Monthly” and it peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #15 in the UK.

When asked about the meaning Augie Meyers said “We were playing in this club called The Blue Note and this couple used to dance and Doug [Sahm] said ‘She’s a body mover!’ Back in those days, you couldn’t say ‘body mover’ on a record. He changed it to ‘She’s About A Mover. ”

Sahm was influenced by the San Antonio music scene that included conjunto and blues, and later by the hippie scene of San Francisco. This helps explain the fact that he described her sexy body movements as a “body mover” and, back in those days, it would be too sexual for mainstream radio and television.
