Willie And The Hand Jive

Well, I know a cat named Way Out Willie

He got a cool little chick named Rockin' Millie

He can rock and roll and Susie Q

And do that crazy hand jive too

Papa told Willie, "You'll ruin my home

You and that hand jive got to go"

Willie said, "Papa, don't put me down

They doin' that hand jive all over town"

They doin' that hand jive (Yeah)

Hand jive (All over town)

Hand jive (Come on, Willie)

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Mama, Mama, look at Uncle Joe

He doin' the hand jive with Silk Stockings

When my gay baby sister died

Said, "Do that hand jive one more time"

Doctor, lawyer, and Yankee

Now 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 (Yeah)

Hand jive (Yeah)

Hand jive (Yeah)

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Oh yeah

Spin up somethin'

Yeah

Now Willie and Millie got married last fall

They had a little Willie Junior and that ain't all

Well, the baby got famous and it's plain to see

He was doin' that hand jive on TV

He did the hand jive (Oh yeah)

Hand jive (Come on, Willie)

Hand jive (Slang it, baby)

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Hey, hey, hey

Alright, do it, Willie

Do what?

Put your hands in the air like you don't care

Like this?

Once on the thighs

Uh-huh

Put your hands together and clap

Okay

And cross 'em over

Do the same thing again

And this time do the monkey stuff

Oh, I see
