Cab Calloway

Hep Hep
Hep Het
Boy?
What ya gonna say there gate?
Oh, boy!

Panama, Shanama, Swanee Shaw,
Let me dig that jive some more;

Take it right on down to Decater
Oh boy!
Gotta dig a fine little Gator
Well now Cant you hear them Hep Cats Call
Yeah!
Come on Boys lets have a ball!
The jim-jam-jump with the jumpin' jive
Makes you get your kicks on the mellow side.
Hep! Hep!
Hep! Hep!
The jim-jam-jump with the solid jive,
Makes you nine foot tall when you're four foot five,
Hep! hep!
Hep! Hep!
Don't be that ickeroo,
Get hep and follow through,
And get your steady foo
Make the joint jump like the gators do,
The jim-jam-jump with the jumpin' jive,
Makes you like your eggs on the Jersey side,
Hep! Hep!
Hep! Hep!
The jim-jam-jump with the jumpin' jive,
Makes you hep! hep! hep! on the mellow side
Scat--
