Johnson Rag Songtext
von Pearl Bailey

Johnson Flood, Mississippi Mud
Black Bottom, I got ′em
Lindy Hop, chop chop chop
Charlotte Russe, turn on the juice
Hep hep, there goes the Johnson Rag
Hoy hoy, there goes the Lady Shag
Ho ho, it really isn't a gag
Hep hep, there goes the Johnson Rag
Jump jump, don′t let your left foot drag
Jeep jeep, it's like a game of tag
Juke juke, it's even good for a stag
Jump jump and do the Johnson Rag
If you′re feeling in the groove
It sends you out of this world
Funny how it makes you move
I don′t wanna coax but don't be a milks
Zig zig, then add a zig zig zag
Zoop zoop, just let your shoulders wag
Zoom zoom, now it′s right in the bag
Get hep and get happy with the Johnson Rag


Oh, play that thing, boy
Get hot or go home
Don't leave till I finish jumping, ha ha ha
Like these high class guitar players, they have so much
Keep playing, boy
Now can′t you tell a homeboy when you hear one?
That's the one right there
There goes the Johnson Rag
There goes the Lady Shag
It really isn′t a gag
There goes the Johnson Rag
Don't let your left foot drag
It's like a game of tag
It′s even good for a stag
Jump jump jump and do the Johnson Rag
′Cause if you're feeling in the groove
It sends you out of this world
It′s funny how it makes you move
I don't wanna coax but don′t be a milks
So zig zig zig and then add a zig zag
Zoop zoop zoop and let your shoulders drag
Zoom zoom and now it's in the bag
Get hep and get happy with the Johnson Rag
I need to tell you
Get hep and get happy with the Johnson Rag
