Joe Jackson - Jumpin' Jive Lyrics
Boys - what you gonna say down there?Oh boys - what you gonna say down there?Palamar, shalamar, swanny shoreLet me dig that jive once moreBoys - take it right on down to the gatorOh boys - gotta take a side elevatorCant you hear those hip cats callCome on boys lets have a ballThe jip-jam-jump is a jumpin jiveMakes you dig your jive on the mellow sideThe jip-jam-jump is a solid jiveMakes you nine foot tall when youre four foot fiveNow, dont you be that ickerooGet hip, come on and follow doWhen you get your steady foolYou met your jump like the gators doThe jip-jam-jump is a jumpin jiveMakes you like your eggs on the jersey sideThe jip-jam-jumpin jiveMakes you hip hip on the mellow sideThe jip-jam-jump is a solid jiveMakes you nine foot tall when youre four foot fiveThe jip-jam-jumpin jiveMakes you hip hip on the mellow sideNow, dont you be that ickerooGet hip, come on and follow doWhen you get your steady foolYou met your jump like the gators doThe jip-jam-jump is a jumpin jiveMakes you like your eggs on the jersey sideThe jip-jam-jumpin jiveMakes you hip hip on the mellow sideSkibbel-de-doo . . .Now I told you bout the jumpin jiveJip-jam-jum the jumpin jiveI know you dug this mellow jiveCause you dig it on the mellow side
