Translation
Bilingual
He wears a zoot suit with hand-wreathed fleece
Round the dirty, big cord with a rumpled sleeve
He's jitterbuggin' to scare the letters off a highway sign
He's a man who drinks beer and chases it down with thunder, baby
Wine mixed with drugs
Carries brass knuckles and a 44
Spreads the lone-shark menace at America's door
He's jitterbuggin', keep movin', don't sit still
It's a loud enough getup, some gun-totin' irate husband will
Yeah, ride your fool
Ride, kick it now, yeah
Ride, James

One late September, he stepped out of his cord
Into the street to face a bullet-ridden board
Now he's jitterbuggin', just another name in the news
Said he finally paid the price, he finally paid his dues
ย
Aw, get it, Allen, woo
