Lyrics[]
Shaggy: I met by chance
A girl in bell-bottom pants
And she likes to say
Crystal: "Groovy".
Shaggy: She came out of the blue
And in an instant I knew
Everything would be
Groovy.
For her, I'd climb a mountain
Swim the deepest ocean
I'd even help her shopping
That's the depth of my devotion.
It will be
A dream come true
She's even got a doggy for Scooby-Doo!
How groovy
Just us two
So groovy
(Scooby: Don't forget Scooby-Doo!)
Shaggy: Groovy
Our love will never be blue.
I'll take this girl
On a tour of the world
Going port to port
(Groovy).
We'll spend all our time
Every single last dime
At the best food courts
Shaggy and Scooby: Groovy!
Shaggy: Her smile's so bright it lights up
My romantic feelings
And best of all she's so tall
Like, I won't have to reach for high things!
And even when
I'm chasing ghosts
I'll quit in time for dinner
Six o'clock at the most!
How groovy
Just us two
So groovy
(Scooby: Don't forget Scooby Doo!)
Shaggy: Our love will never be blue.
She'll cook me all my favorites
Six or seven helpings
And when it comes to say "I do"
We'll have a tie dye wedding.
Our house will be
So very fine
We'll fill it up with stuff from 1969!
How groovy
Just us two
So groovy
And Shaggy Jr. too!
Groovy
And maybe some baby dogs, too.
(Scooby: Aww, heeheeheeheeheehee!)
How groovy (groovy)
So groovy (groovy)
How groovy.

Notes/trivia[]
- This is the second of three songs in the film, following the opening theme song.
- This is the first song heard during a fantasy moment.
- The song includes a homage to the original series, where the gang in their original outfits chase a ghost resembling the Phantom (but with an added mouth) until Shaggy leaves to have dinner with Crystal, much to the confusion of everyone else (especially the ghost).
- The music for "Hey Groovy" is a reworked version of Petula Clark's hit song "Downtown."
- The lyrics include the line "We'll fill it up with stuff from 1969!", which references the year that the franchise premiered.
