Do the Hand Jive Songtext
von Archie Bell & the Drells

Just for the hand jive with you baby

Ooh, hand jive
Everybody, hand jive
Come on girl, hand jive
People do the hand jive

Sometime my feet don′t feel like getting in the groove
But I see a girl in the corner and I like the way she moove

So I'll go right over, and I cut in on the action
Soon as I start dancing, I′m the center of attraction

Doing the hand jive
Ooh, hand jive
People do the hand jive
Everybody, hand jive

I got a buddy, he's twenty years old
He likes the music, but his feet won't move to save his soul

He′s got the finest girl, you′d ever wanna see
They think that he can't dance, but he ain′t fooling me


He's doing the hand jive
Ooh, hand jive
Everybody, hand jive
People do the hand jive

So if you can′t dance, because you've got bad feet
Don′t let the good music go by, take a tip from me

And do the hand jive
Ooh, hand jive
Everybody, hand jive
People do the hand jive

Oh, babe come on do it, yeah
Shake your hands
If your feet get tired, yeah
Shake your hands, yeah
You can do it, yeah
It's so easy
Shake your hands, girl
If your feet get tired, yeah
Shake your hands
