Willie and the Hand Jive

I know a cat named Way-Out Willie

He got a cool little chick named Rockin' Millie

He can walk and stroll and Susie Q

And do that crazy hand jive, too



Well, papa said "Willie, you ruin my home

You and the hand jive have got to go"

Willie said, "Papa don't put me down

They're doin' the hand jive all over"



Come on, everybody

Hand jive

Hand jive

Hand jive, doin' that crazy...



[Spoken]

Get out your hands!

If you don't know how to do it, watch these guys

They're professionals, you know



Mama, Mama look at Uncle Joe

Doin' the hand jive with sister Flo

Now Grandma gave baby sister a dime

Do the hand jive one more time



Now, doctor and a lawyer and a Indian chief

Said, they all dig that crazy beat

Way-Out Willie gave 'em all a treat

When he did the hand jive with his feet



Hand jive

Hand jive

Hand jive

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Hey, hey



[Spoken]

Aw, yeah

Now in the movie we sang a song called 'Born to Hand Jive'

The words of this song are

"Born to hand jive, baby

Born to hand jive, baby"

Let's sing it, here we go



Born to hand jive, baby

Born to hand jive, baby



[Spoken]

Hey, we can't hear you



Born to hand jive, baby

She was

Born to hand jive, baby

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Born to hand jive!

Oh yeah



Let's hear it for this hand jivin' fool

How about it?

She's got it goin' on



Hand jive

Hand jive

Hand jive

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Hey, yeah

Hey, hey

Hey, yeah

Hey, yeah!

Hand jive!
