Jumpin` Jive — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

Boys - what you gonna say down there?
Oh Boys - what you gonna say down there?
Palamar, Shalamar, Swanny Shore
Let me dig that jive once more

Boys - take it right on down to the gator
Oh boys - gotta take a side elevator
Can`t you hear those hip cats call
Come on boys let`s have a ball

The jip-jam-jump is a jumpin` jive
Makes you dig your jive on the mellow side
The jip-jam-jump is a solid jive
Makes you nine foot tall when you`re four foot five

Now, don`t you be that ickeroo
Get hip, come on and follow do
When you get your steady fool
You met your jump like the gators do

The jip-jam-jump is a jumpin` jive
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side
The jip-jam-jumpin` jive
Makes you hip hip on the mellow side

The jip-jam-jump is a solid jive
Makes you nine foot tall when you`re four foot five
The jip-jam-jumpin` jive
Makes you hip hip on the mellow side

Now, don`t you be that ickeroo
Get hip, come on and follow do
When you get your steady fool
You met your jump like the gators do

The jip-jam-jump is a jumpin` jive
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side
The jip-jam-jumpin` jive
Makes you hip hip on the mellow side

Skibbel-de-doo . . .
Now I told you `bout the jumpin` jive
Jip-jam-jum the jumpin` jive
I know you dug this mellow jive
Cause you dig it on the mellow side
