They have a new expression
Along old Harlem way
That tells you if a party
Is ten times more than gay
To say that things are jumpin'
Leaves not a single doubt
That everything is in full swing
When you hear somebody shout
Here it is
This joint is jumpin'
It's really jumpin'
Comin' cats, check your hats
I mean this joint is jumpin'
The piano's thumpin'
The dance is pumpin'
Sit your spot
It's more than hot
In fact, the joint is jumpin'
Check your buttons at the door
Be sure to pay your quarter
Burn your leather on the floor
Grab anybody's daughter
The roof is rockin'
The neighbor's knockin'
We're all bums when the workin' comes
I mean this joint is jumpin'
Let me be!
Oh, my!
Hey, hey!
Look out now!
Hey, man, what'd you put in my drink?
Forget the drink, girl
Let's cut this rug
Ow!
Don't you hit this chick!
What?
She's my broad
Hey, you get that stuff back!
I will knock you to your knees!
What?
Whoa, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
This joint is jumpin'
It's really jumpin'
Every Mose is on his toes
I mean this joint is jumpin'
Whoops!
No time for talkin'
Whoops!
It's time for walkin'
Yes!
Grab a jug, cut my rug
I mean this joint is jumpin'
Get your pig's feet, beer and gin
There's plenty in the kitchen
Who's that just came in here?
Whoa, look at how he's switchin'
Hey, man!
I don't mind the hour
'Cause I'm in power
I got bail, we can go to jail
I mean this joint is jumpin'
This joint is jumpin'
It's really jumpin'
We're all bums when the workin' comes
I mean this joint is jumpin'
Don't give your right now
No, no, no
This joint is jumpin'
