Hep-hep!
De-boodle-de-ack, de-boodle-de-ackasaki (hep-hep!)
Oh, rang-tang, te-dah-dee (hep-hep!)
Gonna tell you 'bout the jumpin' jive (hep-hep!)
Jim, jam, jump, the jumpin' jive (hep-hep!)
Cat's 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, in case 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 is the jumpin' jive
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side
Hep-hep!
Hep-hep!
The jim, jam jumpin' jive
Makes you hep-hep on the mellow side
Hep-hep!
Now I've told you about the jumpin' jive
The jim, jam, jump, the jumpin' jive
You've got to sing for this solid jive, yes yes!
The jim, jam, jump, jumpin' jive
Makes you hep-hep on the mellow side!
