Refrain:
Do y’all remember the jitterbug?

Said we couldn’t move quick enough
This a move you don’t interrupt
You don’t interrupt
This a move you don’t interrupt
You don’t interrupt
It’s the jitterbug
Verse 1:
I’m in a mood like Glenn Miller
And cut a rug with this girl named Sheila
She’ll appreciate the way that it feel
When a man like Jimmy Lee move so appealing
Now put your hands to the ceiling
Move back and forth, turn around if you feel it
Let your feet have a mind of its own
Don’t let nobody stop this ride that we on
Fathead why you all up on my shoes?
Sax-man can you get up on my groove?
Solid, I got a wad in my wallet
Polished, all of these gals know I’m stylish
Smooth as I wanna be
Lookee here, you won’t find another me, Jimmy Lee
W-a-t-s-o-n
Woman you can’t leave, forget yo friends
Refrain:
Do y’all remember the jitterbug?
Had everybody gettin’ up
People couldn’t move quick enough
This a move you don’t interrupt
You don’t interrupt
A move you don’t interrupt
You don’t interrupt
Now everybody do the jitterbug
Verse 2:
Boogie woogie on the piano
I’m with a broad from Louisiana
It call her Diana, had a thing on the scene that’a
Mama them fed her right, I mean mean platters
And have you seen Gladys?
She seem glad it’s Friday like the week don’t even matter
‘bout to whip the hip and let her hair drip
Whoops I ain’t know that guy wear wigs
See I notice chicks
When they focus in
On this shoulder twist
Get a load of this
What the program is
Come late and no foolin’ whose home is it
Not to go get hit, you know you can’t tie me down
Jimmy Lee, everybody know me by now
I’ma be gone when the sun come smilin’
In the meantime we can have a good time and
Refrain:
Y’all don’t remember the jitterbug
Had everybody gettin’ up

Verse 3:
Hot diggity dog
How many women up in the vicinity y’all?
It gotta be a lot ‘cau’ they all gettin’ up
Say they all in the club to do the jitterbug
Now follow my cue
Send out now baby follow right through
Shoulder twist, release now switch
Spread out now will ya stop drop quick
And do the shorty George
Don’t hesitate, it’s a party y’all
We try to keep it down ‘fore they call the law
Then they call it off, we gotta call the Lord
Hallowed by thy name
Thy kingdom come is what negroes prayin’
We just pray that it ain’t right now
‘cause what we ain’t are saints right now
Refrain:
Y’all don’t remember the jitterbug
Had everybody gettin’ up
People couldn’t move quick enough
This a move y’all don’t interrupt
You don’t interrupt
Said you don’t wanna interrupt
You don’t interrupt
Now people do the jitterbug
