Willie and the Handjive - Johnny Otis

I know a cat named Way-Out Willie

Had a cool little chick named Rockin' Billie

Now, he can walk in stone

Susie-Q, can do that crazy hand jive too

Papa said, «Wille, you ruin my home

You and that hand jive have got to go»

Willie said, «Papa, don’t you put me down

Been doin' that hand jive all over town»

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Mama, Mama look at Uncle Joe

He’s doin' that hand jive with sister Flo

Grandma gave baby sister a dime

Said, do that hand jive one more time

Well, a doctor and the lawyer and the Indian chief

Well, they all dig that crazy beat

Way-Out Willie gave 'em all a treat, yeah, come on

When he did that hand jive with his feet

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Well, Willi and Millie got married last fall

They had a little Willie Junior and that ain’t all

The baby got famous in his crib you see, come on

By doin' that hand jive on TV, right now, right now

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive

Doin' that crazy hand jive

Hey, hey
