The song was performed as a duet with Jimmy Fallon, in an acoustic arrangement. Early in the Friday show, Jimmy Fallon took the stage for a comedy skit. Sitting on a chair and equipped with an acoustic guitar and a harmonica, he performed an acoustic rendition of LMFAO's smash single Sexy and I know it in a 1970-era Neil Young character. Halfway through the song, Bruce Springsteen took the stage to duet with "Neil Young". He was dressed up as himself from the Born In The U.S.A. era, wearing sunglasses, a sleeveless denim vest, a wig and a headband, and strumming an unplugged Fender Telecaster. Springsteen and Fallon have done their spoof duet three times:

Lyrics

Yeah, yeah
When I walk on by, girls be looking like damn he fly
I pimp to the beat, walking down the street in my new Le Freak, yeah
This is how I roll, animal print, pants outta control
It's Red Foo with a big afro, and like Bruce Lee rock at the club, yeah

When I walk in the spot (yeah), this is what I see (okay)
Everybody stops and they staring at me
I got passion in my pants and I ain't afraid to show it, show it, show it, show it

I'm sexy and I know it
I'm sexy and I know it

Yeah
When I'm at the mall, security just can't fight them off
And when I'm at the beach, I'm in a Speedo trying to tan my cheeks (what)
This is how I roll, come on ladies it's time to go
We headed to the bar, baby don't be nervous
No shoes, no shirt, and I still get serviced (watch!)

(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
I-I-I work out
(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
(Ahhh) Girl look at that body
I-I-I work out

When I walk in the spot (yeah), this is what I see (okay)
Everybody stops and they staring at me
I got passion in my pants and I ain't afraid to show it, show it, show it, show it

I'm sexy and I know it (ayyy)
I'm sexy and I know it

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah
