Before I Was Born, Late One Night, My Papa Said Everything's Alright

The Doctor Paid, Mama Laid Down, With A Semitone Bouncing All Around

Cause The Beebop Stork Was About To Arrive

Mama Gave Birth To The Hand-jive



I Could Barely Walk When I Looked In Town, When I Was Three, I Pushed A Plow

While Chopping Wood I Move My Legs, And I Started The Dance While I Gathered Eggs

Bowed And Clapped, I Was Only Five

And I Danced 'em All, He's Born To Hand-jive



Oh Yeah, Yeah, Yeah - Everybody



Born To Hand-jive, Baby, Born To Hand-jive, Baby - Yeah



How Low Can You Go, How Low Can You Go, How Low Can You Go, How Low Canyou Go



Higher, Higher, Higher And Higher

Now Can You Hand-jive, Baby, Oh Can You Hand-jive, Baby

Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Born To Hand-jive, Oh Yeah!
