The Jumpin' Jive (Hep! Hep!) |
Hep-hep! |
De-boodle-de-ack, de-boodle-de-ackasaki! |

Jim, jam, jump, the jumpin' jive; |
Hep-hep! |
Cats gonna beat out this mellow jive; |
Hep-hep! |
Beat it out on the mellow side |
Boy? |
Whatcha gonna say there, gate? |
Oh, boy! |
Whatcha gonna say there, gate? |
Palomar, shalomar, Swanee shore |
Let me dig that jive once more |
Boy! |
Lay it right on down to the gator |
Oh, boy! |
Lay it flat as a gator |
Now, can’t you hear those hepcats call |
Yeah! |
Come on, boys, let’s have a ball! |
The jim, jam, jump on the jumpin' jive |
Makes you dig your jive on the mellow side |
Hep-hep! |
Hep-hep! |
The jim, jam, jump is the solid jive |
Makes you nine foot tall when you’re four foot five |
Hep-hep! |
Hep-hep! |
Now, don’t you be that ickeroo |
Get hep, come on and follow through |
Then you get your steady foo |
You make the joint jump like the gators do |
The jim, jam, jump on the jumpin' jive |
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side |
Hep-hep! |

Makes you hep-hep on the mellow side! |

Makes you nine foot tall when you’re four foot five |
Hep-hep! |
Hep-hep! |
Now, don’t you be that ickeroo |
Get hep, come on and follow through |
Then you get your steady foo |
You make the joint jump like the gators do |
The jim, jam, jump on the jumpin' jive |
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side |
Hep-hep! |
