Swinging Teens Songtext
von The Dells

Those swingin′ teens
(Where they from?) From New Orleans
(Now what they do?) They keep their rhythm
Like a sewing machine
Eatin' cornbread and a-mustard greens

You know last year, or was it year before?
I heard three cats singin′ at a talent show
Their down-home harmony sounded good to me
Well, they're all named Jimmy, and they sure are clean


Jimmy Jones, Jimmy Brown and the bass singer Jimmy Green
They keep a big hit record way up in the top fifteen
When they hit the stage with their blue jeans on
They look like something that fell from the Twilight Zone
From the first note on them cats are gone
Just listen to 'em, mmm, singin′ them blues
They′ve got me rockin', child, down in my shoes

Just a-twistin′ and a-turnin' they sure know what to do

Those swingin′ teens
(Where they from?) From New Orleans
(Now what they do?) They keep their rhythm
Like a sewing machine
They keep a big hit record way up in the top fifteen
Just listen to 'em, mmm, singin′ them blues
They've got me rockin', child, down in my shoes
Just a-twistin′ and a-turnin′ they sure know what to do
