von Louis Prima

Baby, baby, it looks like it′s gonna hail
Baby, baby, it looks like it's gonna hail
You better come inside
Let me teach you how to jive an′ wail
Oh, you gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail away
Papa's in the icebox lookin' for a can of ale
Papa′s in the icebox lookin′ for a can of ale
Mama's in the backyard
Learnin′ how to jive an' wail
Oh, you gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail away


A woman is a woman and a man ain′t nothin' but a male
A woman is a woman and a man ain′t nothin' but a male
One good thing about him
He knows how to jive an' wail
Oh, you gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail away
Jack and Jill went up the hill to get a pail
Jack and Jill went up the hill to get a pail
Jill stayed up
She want to learn how to jive an′ wail
Oh, you gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail
You gotta jump, jive, and then you wail away
