calloway (cab) - drivin (jazz music hall) 1936



Oh, boo-dang, dang-a-dee-day
Gonna tell you 'bout the jumpin' jive

Beat it out on the mellow side, dig it

"Jumpin 'Jive" (également connu sous le nom de "(Hep-Hep!) The Jumpin' Jive") est une célèbre composition de jazz / swing, écrite par Cab Calloway, Frank Froeba et Jack Palmer. Enregistré à l'origine le 17 juillet 1939, sur Vocalion Records, il s'est vendu à plus d'un million d'exemplaires. Calloway le joue avec son orchestre et les frères Nicholas dans la comédie musicale Stormy Weather de 1943.

Man, those cats gonna beat out that mellow jive (hep-hep)
Beat it out on the mellow side, dig it

Oh, boy (whatcha gonna say there, gate?)

Boy (take it right on down to the gator)
Oh, boy (little gator, slide little gator)

Come on, boys, let's have a ball
Makes you dig your jive on the mellow side

Makes you nine feet tall when you four feet five

And now, don't you be that ickeroo
Get hip, come on and follow through
Then you get your steady foo'
You make the joint jump like the gators do
(The jim, jam, jump is the jumpin' jive)
Makes you dig your eggs on the Jersey side

Now, don't you be that ickeroo
Get hep, come on, follow through
Then you get your steady foo
You make the joint jump like the gators do

Makes you dig your eggs on the Jersey side
Hep-hep
The jim, jam, jump, and the jumpin' jive
Makes you hep-hep on the mellow side
The jim, jam, jump, and the jumpin' jive
Makes you hep-hep on the mellow side
