Doug The Jitterbug (03-29-39)

Doug the Jitterbug
Just a silly lug
Young and wild with lots of style
That’s Doug the Jitterbug
Just a crazy mug
Drinks liquor by the jug
He’s alive with lots of jive
Doug the Jitterbug
They threw him out of school
'Cause all he learned was Tiger Rag
He never knew the golden rule
But boy, how he can shag
Doug the Jitterbug
Cuts a wicked rug
It ain’t no shame, he’s not to blame
He’s Doug the Jitterbug
He studied to be a lawyer
But he never got a case
Every time they’d look for that cat in court
He’d be doing the pantywaist
Let’s talk about Doug the Jitterbug
Cuts a wicked rug
It ain’t no shame, he’s not to blame
He’s Doug the Jitterbug
