Lyrics

Well, now the juke-joint's jumpin', baby's on the scene Pumpin' all your money in the record machine You take her jivin' (Jivin') It ain't sophisticated, jivin' (Jivin') Ain't even complicated All your standard loses, you'll all be walkin' blues When you're jivin' (Jivin') Well, now you're skippin', double-dippin' and the music's gettin' loud Baby's really showin' her suspenders to the crowd Call it jivin' (Jivin') Just keep her rockin' steady, jivin' (Jivin') You know you're ready, Teddy Bumpin' and a jumpin', baby, baby's really somethin' When you're jivin' (Jivin') Hey, hey Jivin' (Jivin') Tight pants and creepers when you're jivin' (Jivin') You won't believe your peepers, petticoats and hose Ponytails and bows when you're jivin' (Jivin') Well, I'll take you to a movie, baby, any time you like But tonight you'd better know when I get you on my bike We're gonna jive it (Jive it) Your mama's cool about jivin' (Jivin') She's a fool about it, whoever digs, does she And papa, get it on, we're gonna jive it (Jive it) Well, jivin' (Jivin') Around the kitchen table, jivin' (Jivin') Your papa's really evil, jivin' (Jivin') Your mama's tryin' now to jive him (Jivin') And your daddy's tryin' now Dive into the grass, swing your mama all around Let's jive it (Jive it) Jivin' (Jivin') Tight pants and creepers when you're jivin' (Jivin') You won't believe your peepers, petticoats and hose Ponytails and bows when you're jivin' (Jivin') Now, I bumped into a preacher, but he said he couldn't stop me He was sleepin' on the pipe and at the local record hop He's goin' jivin' (Jivin') At celebration, they'll be jivin' (Jivin') A rockin' congregation She'll be my wife, I'll keep you happy all your life I'll take you jivin' (Jivin') (Shadow on the wall) Jivin' (Jivin') Just keep her rockin' steady, jivin' (Jivin') You know you're ready, Teddy Petticoats and hose, ponytails and bows When you're jivin' (Jivin') Well, now the jukebox's jumpin', baby's on the scene Pumpin' all your money in the record machine You take her jivin' (Jivin') It's not sophisticated (Jivin') Ain't even complicated All your standard loses, you'll all be walkin' blues When you're jivin'
