They have a new expression along old Harlem way |
|
That tells you when a party is ten times more than gay |
|
To say that things are jumpin' leaves not a single doubt |
|
That everthing is in full swing when you hear someone shout |
|
Here 'tis |
|
The joint is jumpin' |
|
It's really jumpin' |
|
Come in, cats, and check your hats |
|
I mean this joint is jumpin' |
|
The piano's thumpin', |
|
The dancers are bumpin', |
|
This here spot is more than hot |
|
In fact, the joint is jumpin' |
|
Check your weapons at the door |
|
Be sure to pay your quarter |
|
Burn your leather on the floor |
|
Grab anybody's daughter |
|
The roof is rockin' |
|
The neighbors knockin' |
|
We're all bums when the wagon comes |
|
I mean, this joint is jumpin' |
|
Let it be! Yas! |
|
Burn this joint, boy, yas! |
|
Oh, my, yas! |
|
Don't you hit that chick, that's my broad |
|
Where'd you get that stuff at? |
|
Why, I'll knock you to your knees, what? |
|
Put this cat out of here, what? |
|
Get rid of that pistol, get rid of that pistol |
|
Yeah, get rid of it, yas, yeah |
|
That's what I'm talkin' about, ha, ha |
|
Now it's really ready |
|
No, baby, not now, I can't come over there right now |
|
Yeah, let's do it! |
|
The joint is jumpin' |
|
It's really jumpin' |
|
Every Mose is on his toes |
|
I mean this joint is jumpin' |
|
Uh, oh, no time for talkin' |
|
This place is walkin', yes |
|
Get your jug and cut the rug |
|
I think the joint is jumpin' |
|
Listen |
|
Get your pig feet, bread and gin |
|
There's plenty in the kitchen |
|
Who is that that just came in? |
|
Just look at the way he's switchin' |
|
Aw, mercy, don't mind the hour |
|
I'm in power, I've got bail if we go to jail |
|
I mean this joint is jumpin' |
|
Don't give your right name, no, no, no, no |
